Perfumers Apprentice - Mary Jane flavor ?

[John Phoenix]

Someone Please tell me that taste like the Mary Jane candy bar.

I just found it here, Perfumers Apprentice - Rebel Pack for the sample pack

Oh wait.. I just looked it up.

Or here: Perfumers Apprentice - Mary Jane Flavor

Description:

" water soluble
this flavor was 6 months in development, and is a fairly close approximation of the flavor of .........
We want to stress that it is an artificial blend that contains no active ingredients, just flavor.
We have had feedback about ways to experiment with this one,
try adding a little vanilla, and if you're looking for that "skunk cabbage" note, try adding
a little of the Kona Coffee"

Interesting. I can see this being a best seller. I have mixed feelings about this flavor even existing.

Anyone tried this? How do you like it?

 

[Hoosier]

Tried it.

It is fairly difficult to work with.

It is quite strong.

It has many interesting qualities to it and I can see using it as a spice note because all my attempts at making it a base flavor have been horrible.

Be careful with this one. It gets tremendously stronger in flavor level the longer it sits. It can go from "kinda cool" when just mixed to "OMFG I'm going to die!" within a week.

I have an idea in the back of my head to combine some TA, Oakwood, Rum, and this flavor for an exotic tea kind of taste...

But I have lots of weird ideas in the back of my head. I keep the really strange ones right up front though...

Thank you, thank you, thank you !!! I thought I was the only one
that thought of the candy bar first, then read the description.
And I always loved the candy....

 

[Hoosier]

I thought I was the only one....

Nope, there are plenty of weird ideas. You are not the only one.

I am old enough to remember pet rocks and mood rings being "must have" items. That's pretty weird...

Thanks for the reply. Does the above mean it gets stronger on the exhale also.. I mean.. do people smell it and think you smoking .. you know.

 

[Hoosier]

No, it gets stronger as it steeps. Insanely stronger. That is what makes it tough to work with.

I cannot say what others smell, but it only makes sense that it could make some noses wonder...

I MIXED UP A 10ML BOTTLE OF IT OVER A YEAR AGO, @ 15% tasted like pine cones, still got the 10ml bottle wonder what it is like now, afraid to find out.

 

[Stownz]

I'm going to have to agree with the pine cones idea. Best thing I can compare it too. It's pretty bad.

 

[Shantia]

maybe 1% would have been better then 15% lol..Wow if it gets stronger as it ages and its been sitting for a year. Careful, it might taste like a whole tree now!

 

[cmdryker]

That was when i was a mixin rookie. matter of fact does have branches growing out of it.

LOL, I'm old enough to remember those, if fact old enough to have laughed at the idea
someone would spend money on them....

Excuse me Mr..

Why I'll have you know I had my Pet Rock walking I did. Would have had him chasing cars too if he wasn't so petrified.

<grin>

 

[datacreek]

Yeah, I have mixed feelings too. Mainly because of the lack of active ingredients.

 

[Safira]

OK, I gotta ask does anyone here know if it tastes like the real thing and is willing to publicly addmit they know what it really tastes like. I've seen the scent for candle making but it only ever smells like the dirty water. (KWIM)

My parents wouldn't let me have a pet rock, so I made my own. Used a strawberry box for his bed with Easter grass for bedding. I might still have my mood ring someplace.

 

[Hoosier]

Smells like fresh skunk.

If you know what skunk means when it doesn't mean a black and white rodent, then it will make sense.

If you know pet rocks and mood rings there is a good chance you will...

 

[DynamiteShikoku]

good lord i would love a sour diesel flavor.

 

[Lady M]

My 2 cents I love love this flavor and I mix mine at 20 % I think its great to get that special flavor ...... and nicotine in a safe vape .

 

[ecfSim]

To me it tastes like it wasn't properly dried - a bit green tasting IYKWIM - as much like lawn clippings as anything else...

 

[5vz]

This thread is hilarious! Have to admit, I too made my own pet rock.

I have been curious about this flavor. I never thought candy bars. I thought it could be something we called something in the '70's and was afraid to even ask if that is what it is. From the descriptions here, it may just be what I thought it was. Like the time I tried to tell mom that ring I bought at the flea market was a palm tree shape. She was smarter than that, and the ring went buh-bye.
