My thoughts on E-Cig Flavors

Being that I’m a new E-Cig user and enjoying it immensely I thought I would write a little review of each flavor I have tried so far.

My first flavor tried with my new kit was Chocolate Raspberry. Oh My Goodness! I love the flavor! It has a sweet, long lasting flavor that is pleasantly mild, but gives a very nice throat hit and plenty of vapors. I completely used up the juice in this sample Carto and plan to order more of it!

When that Carto was used up I tried the Orange flavor sample. My first impression was “is there any flavor to this Carto?” I guess it was because I had just finished off my Chocolate Raspberry Carto. So I set it down and decided I would try it out the next morning. More to follow at a little later date.

In the mean time, I pulled out a blank Carto and my bottle of Spearmint Nobacco. I carefully loaded the Carto with juice. Then I put it on a battery and took a hit. OMG! Talk about a Powerful, Flavorful Throat Hit! Dang I love the Spearmint flavor! It is an INTENSE Flavor with a Long Lasting Taste!
I grew up loving the taste of Strong Spearmint, Peppermint and Wintergreen, so I personally feel that this flavor is a Keeper and it is going to be one of my all time favorites!

My wife let me try Vapeing in the house last night to see if it was going to leave an unpleasant odor. She seemed to enjoy the smell of the Chocolate Raspberry and had Zero complaints about me using that flavor inside.

To all of those people that say there is No Odor from vaping, good luck with that! I could smell the scent of the Chocolate Raspberry last night when I came in from being outside and I noticed it this morning when I got out of bed.

I convinced a friend of ours to order a starters kit. She received her kit yesterday too. This morning she finally tried out her E-Cig. She is a heavy smoker like me and she has always been adamant that she “Will Not Smoke in her house!” Well, she pulled out the E-Cig, installed a Menthol flavored Carto on the battery and took a few drags. She says she enjoyed it very much. But then an hour or so later she called me and cussed me out because the E-Cig had left a Cigarette Smell in her house!

So, in my Honest and Humble Opinion, the statement that E-Cigs do not have an odor is not true. Granted, it is just vapor, but it does have a scent to it that lingers. So Please be Careful Around others and try to respect their rights too. That way all of us Vapers have a little better chance of being understood and accepted!

As I try out other flavors I’ll let you know what I think. (oh, by the way; I haven’t had an analog ever since I opened up my starters kit yesterday afternoon at about 2 p.m.! That’s about 18 hours without!)

There is no offensive tobacco odor from vaping. When I vape Malty Toffee from Backwoods Brew, my wife says it smells like cotton candy. RY4 smells like caramel. The other flavors have their own signature, but when I vape in a restaurant, no one lifts their head to search out the offensive odor. It just blends in with aroma of food preparation and life is good.

I have now tried Orange again one 2 different times and it still leaves me cold. :( There just is No Flavor to me. :( I'm disappointed because I was really hoping I would enjoy it. :(

Another flavor I am using is Raspberry Cobbler. It's Yummy as all get out! :) It has a nice flavor and a pretty decent throat hit. :) I think it will be added to my Keepers list! :)

Where it is true that some flavors of vapors may leave a slight scent, but it does not last. Every time you use aftershave or perfume, there is a scent that lingers for a little while, but it does not last. Vaping will not infuse the flavors you use into the furniture, carpets, drapes, and walls like tobacco smoke does.

In other words, don't worry, vape happy. :)

Sorry for the breach of protocol Mac! :( I tend to get a little over enthusiastic when I start into a new hobby and adventure. ;) I'm extremely new to this forum, so I guess I made a mistake. I'll try to do better.
My starters kit and products are from V4L. :) I have an order for a huge batch of trial sized flavors coming from Gourmet Vapors. I can hardly wait for them to get here. :)
