Hey guys and gals, relatively new vape user here with a question for ya.
I LOVED my Marlboro Smooth analogs, and since i'm now 100% analog free, id like to replicate that flavor.
I know there are other liquids out there that say its similar to "Marlboro Smooth" but the ratings on them don't seem that good.
I currently use Fresh Menthol from MyFreedomSmokes, and its REAL good but not quite the same. They have US Menthol (Marlboro Green) and Spearmint, I was wondering if I mixed the 2 if it would give me the flavor i'm looking for. Thanks ahead of time.

Take a little bit and give it a try, can't hurt! Just remember that flavour is subjective to each person, so something you like; someone else may not enjoy. Never hurts to try mixing a couple flavours to get the taste and vape you're looking for. There are many tobacco flavours out there though so I'm sure you will find something to compare to the Marlboro Smooths you smoked. If I were you and I knew I wanted a good tobacco flavour to vape, I'd buy a couple sampler packs, 5 ml bottles, and experiment with them, maybe even mix a couple to try and replicate the flavour you're looking for. I realize that might get a little expensive if you don't find it right away, but just think of all the money you're saving by not smoking cigarettes!!

NONE of them will taste just like an analog. Don't waste your time chasing that exact taste.
It's not going to happen. There are however some really nice tobacco flavors out there.
They taste similar to tabacco but not like burning tobacco.

I like Dark Horse and Huntsman from Heathers.
Vapin on some Huntsman now, pretty nice for me.:vapor:

One of the best ways to find out what flavors you like is to visit a local vape shop and sample flavors, as most of them offer that service. I found one that has two stores in the Charlotte area - Electronic Cigarettes | Charlotte, NC | Rock Hill, SC | Matthews, NC | Carolina E Cigs They seem to carry a large selection of liquids, so you may save quite bit of time and money visiting them. One brand they carry is Halo, which I have found to be excellent - Menthol Ice is one of my favorites. Good luck in your hunt!

If your looking for sampler options check out http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...cussion/458263-3ml-cheap-sampler-bottles.html

I was like you when I started I was after something that tasted like my Camel Light...I never found one that was exactly like it. I'm glad I tried out more flavor samples as I hardly ever use tobacco flavors any more. That may or may not be the case for you though...just try out a bunch until you figure out what you like.

Start with some sample packs. That way you can try several and not sink in a bunch of $$ on the full size. Johnson Creek is a good place to start for tobacco flavors. I started looking for tobacco flavors and soon found a whole other world out there that I liked even better. So my choices changed after I got further into vaping.

Finding the perfect juice is always a matter of trying and trying until the right one hits. If there's a good vape shop close to you that has a vape bar where you can try all the flavors, it may be fairly easy to find the right vape. My local vendor has a center table where you pick up a plastic drip tip and use it on your choice of prefilled Vivi Nova tanks to try the juices. All the tanks are loaded with a labelled juice and there are about 40 of them to try. It's easy because the tanks are in a display with all of them within reach. You don't have to ask and have someone hand it to you. It's just there on a table in slotted holders.

Yep, I ordered online from Carolyn, among other suppliers based on inventory in stock, for a couple of years. Now that they are local, I pass by their new store several times a week. It's really convenient and I've never before been able to actually try samples without buying mail order and culling those that tasted yucky. :)

mix a icy menthol with andes mint flavor, it would be perfect.

i smoked quite a few packs of smooths for a while but would always go back to kools or camel menthols before the crush balls or the new marboro black menthols. i havent found a true menthol taste but thats okay with me i guess. i mostly use menthol to ice up a sweet fruity flavor a bit.

STOP right there, before you go any further, do want to smoke cigarettes, or do you want to vape? Want a Marlboro smooth favor? That's easy, go buy a pack of Marlboro Smooth's. If you want to vape, find a flavor, or 2, of juice that you enjoy. Vaping is not Smoking! I started vaping so I could choose not to smoke.

Yeah, yeah, every single smoker who steps into the world of vape, looks for that elusive juice that tastes like their beloved Camel filters, Marlboro Reds, Newport Menthols......................................................................................................................... Ya ain't going to find it, doesn't exist. Stop wasting money searching, and instead search for a flavor of vape that tastes good, you enjoy, delivers the amount of nicotine so you don't crave or have the urge to smoke, then look for another flavor.

Believe it or not, but all smokes taste like CRAP!!!! They are disgusting, and suck the big one. Once you have vaped for awhile, couple weeks, maybe a couple months, and you happen to pick up a smoke, you will not like it. Because they taste like CRAP!!! You just don't realize that yet, because your taste buds and sense of smell have been thrashed and don't work well no more. Vape and they will start to recover, you'll smell and taste things that you have forgotten what they were like.

Sure, you can find flavors that kind of taste like cigarettes, well kind of, if you were drunk and ate a lot of salsa, and there are tobacco flavor juices, that sort give a similar experience to smoking and if you close your eyes and think really hard, you can almost visualize, that it is almost like a smoke, well kind of... Flavors like Virginia Fired Tobacco, RY4, Captain Blacks Tobacco, will sort of kind of almost seem like, what you once recalled, sort of, what smokes could of almost tasted like, but I add like cinnamon, or coffee, maybe some vanilla burgundy, or some Cappuccino extract to them and make a juice that tastes and smells wonderful. People will say to me, what's that wonderful aroma? That smells good. Your breath smells wonderful. That never ever happened to me when I smoked cigarettes.

Do yourself a favor, find some juice that taste good, and go from there. I make all my own juice now, haven't purchased a premixed juice for months. I enjoy a full selection of flavors, from strong full flavor, to some fruity piney ones. Cinnamon accents to coffee. hypnotic liquor to licorice. and enjoy them all, don't miss smokes, because they taste like crap.

Vape long and Prosper!!
