I ordered a big bottle of it too back in October and the only word I could think of to describe it was "fuel." I contacted them and they were quick to send me a new bottle which wasn't as bad as the first but when it's gone, I don't wish to replace it with the same. I was so disappointed after reading good reviews. I want to try Nude Nic but I'm a little gun shy.

Pretty much exactly my experience. The "new" batch suffers from the same problem as the older, its just attenuated. I have the benefit of having old MFS sitting over here which I use for comparison. Nevertheless..

EDIT: And man Lynda, honored to have you, I remember reading some of your posts when I first started vaping on a mall piece of JUNK! Crazy!

Hi Lynda, Good to see you again. :) I'm glad they had replaced that "BP Oil Spillage" for ya. I had some questions on my little bottle and haven't received a response from them. Looks like I won't be ordering from them again as well. My first Nude nic was excellent. As for the second it turned orange brown a little too quick for my liking. I'll be sticking to WL for awhile. Take care Lynda :)

Okay guys, I bit the bullet and ordered some Nude Nic. Received it today and so far, I have a big happy face! Packaging was great, but the real prize was opening it and taking that first apprehensive sniff. Sniff, sniff, no offensive odor! Sniff, Sniff.....one more little sniff....nothing! I got so excited, I grabbed my small canning jars and poured it up to go to the freezer. No odor coming from the wide mouth jars! Next test is rinsing out the original bottle. Some nic solutions turn pretty nasty smelling when they hit water but not this one. I haven't mixed anything yet but I feel very confident that I'm going to be happy with the finished product. Oh, and crystal clear 100% VG 100mg base. :) My hubby and daughter got quite a show watching me dance around the kitchen praising the contents of an ugly brown bottle! Yes, I'm a happy camper!!!!!! I'll report back after a mixing session.

Thank you brother, I'm excited to play ;)

I've found a new place to get nic from and I should have it today. I hope.

Anyway I have a package I am sending to Cyrus and it will have a small sample of this new nic in it.

if it passes my Taste test , it will be the most inexpensive nic I have ever bought.

I've not heard a thing from MFS regarding my last messages, sent both as PM on ECF and as a message on the MFS website. ::sigh::: :glare:

Reporting back with my results of Nude Nic mixed. I'm very pleased with the results. I mixed a bottle of my Smooth Virginia and Luscious, which is my version of Eco Pure Rich/Malty. Of course it takes a few days for the Virginia to ripen but even out of the shoot, I am happy, happy, happy! It's been a while since I've had such clean tasting vapes. Luscious was the true test because there are no flavors added to mask a funky tasting nic. I can't say enough about how satisfied I am with NN. I will definitely be ordering and stashing more of it. This is the best (non) tasting nic I've had since I finished my last bottle of Wizard's Ice. I'm glad I took a chance and tried this one. I was more than a little apprehensive about trying something new after my last experience with a new brand. Highly recommended!

Hey all I am very new to DIY. What are all the letters mean....RTS, XV, MFS, VZ and ECX??? A little help here for a new guy lol.

RTS = RTS Vapes
XV = Xtreme Vaping
MFS = My Freedom Smokes
VZ = Vaping Zone
ECX = E-Cig Express


We use lots of abbreviations, so it's better to ask than assume.

I have to say about the kerosene/gasoline smell I know what you are all talking about---I noticed that in a beginning incarnation of a popular vendor's nic but ONLY the first time. I talked to the vendor about it immediately and they were very responsive. Eventually I bought again and it was perfection. Point being, anything distaseful or foul smelling should be reported to the vendor at once. They can't fix things without feedback.

Just received 100mg PG nic from NicVape Batch # 1312002N.
It does have a bit of a smell on the rubbery side but by no means overwhelming and a little yellowish tint, just a little.

What's strange is that it has the same smell my PG base has (not from NicVape). Now i'm baffled, does a PG base supposed to have a smell? my VG does not.

Didn't get to sample the taste yet.

Pretty sure vendors know exactly what they are selling before the commit to large purchases. Plus the nic is obviously tested before purchase, after delivery and retested again before they bottle it. WL even has a Titration device right in the front of the office so vendors can be sure they aren't getting burned with bad product. These places don't just sell to the average Joe DIY'er from ECF. There are big time vendors buying from the same sources as the rest of us and you can bet they give plenty of feedback.

This nic I got yesterday smelled just like some RTS nic I got a month or so back..Rubbery,and not very palatable.

I will be sending out 2 litres to cyrus of the RTS,Of which I have dumped most of it.and I will also send a sample of what O received yesterday as wel...

I was disappointed in the RTS nic,although they did give me a refund on the litres I bought. I was told they had recently changed vendors.Well I hope for their sake they go back to their other vendor..


I currently use VZ nic,although it is really pricey for me,it is good.

Cyrus,I am putting your package together now and it will go out today.
