Perfumer's apprentice tiramasu

[PowerofParanoia]

I just made a 3ml bottle of tiramasu with the perfumer's apprentice with 18% tiramasu and 2% sweetner.

Last time I ever do that.
I usually like all of my flavors really intense, but god, I can't seem to get the smell of the tiramasu out of my sinuses.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to dilute the tiramasu flavor or have a good recipe for it?
I have caramel, cinnamon roll, sweetner, waffle, and french vanilla.

I'm totally serious though. No matter how much french vanilla I vape, the smell won't leave my sinuses.

I need to start taking a hard look at reviews before I decide to make any juice.
The first thing on their website said "WARNING, THIS IS A VERY STRONG FLAVOR".

Try mixing at 5% or less by itself this time, or just dilute your 3ml batch with 9ml of unflavored liquid. Once you've gotten it to the strength you want then consider mixing it with other flavors - which you should probably test by themselves first as well considering this experience!

Good luck.

I'm not sure anything can be done - I love PA - some of the flavors are too weak for me and I find myself adding greater then 50% flavoring - but none were bad -

Until tiramasu - I bought it because they said it was strong - and being old and my taste buds shot - I need strong. But that odor drove me out of the house. That was really bad. I hope you did not buy a larger size - I got 15ml and I believe it is a total waste. I can not imagine a way to fix it.

IMHO FA Tiramisu is a mile better. That said, I did mix it at 5% then added 5% PA Choc, 4% PA Sweet Cream and 3% PA Bittersweet Choc. Much more tasty and more similar to FA.

I did the very same thing with Earl Grey from PA. The flavor was so strong I smelled it for hours!

Even after diluting it significantly, I can only vape the Earl Grey for about an hour before it gets to me. I think it was the flavor overload so I am hoping in time I will be able to vape it more often. It tastes exactly like the tea which by the way I can not drink after the incident.

I had to put my 3ml bottle of TPA Tiramisu on my balcony because it stank up my whole apartment. Was a couple of days before I stopped smelling it everywhere. Terrifying stuff. I'm scared to even try it at one drop for 6ml.

You guys are making it sound like hair is growing from the wall of the room. I'll need to add tiramisu with my next PA order.
Her peanut butter is potent though my walls aren't in need of a brushing.

 

[PowerofParanoia]

It was ridiculous, but I will definitely dilute it down to 5% in the next batch.
I don't usually buy flavors in big bottles, the only flavor I will do that with is my french vanilla, but that's because I'm a vanilla fanatic.

@Jon: That's how it was in my living room. I had to take it out to the garage to try to get the smell out of the house...and that was from mixing a 3 ml bottle of it.

@Nikhil: Thanks for the tip, I'm going to try adding a couple of flavors to it to try and dumb down that intense bitter coffee flavor.

@Kemuri: You have no idea...

So, 4 days later I use the atomizer that was used to vape the liquid I made with the tiramasu and it's still so strong on my atty that I can't even taste the liquid I'm vaping right now.

I even cleaned the thing in isopropyl for like 3 hours.

Evil tiramasu.

OK, so I just got back from visiting some family and decided to venture out on the balcony to check on the Tiramisu, and lo and behold it no longer a weapon of mass olfactory destruction. In fact, now it smells kinda like... Tiramisu!

So I just brewed up a 3ml tester and threw it in a fresh carto:

50 drops PG 24mg
50 drops VG 24mg
5 drops Genuine balcony-aged TPA Tiramisu, mellowed for a fortnight in the crisp Canadian autumn air.
1 drop Capella Vanilla Custard
2 drops TPA Sweet Cream
1 drop Ethyl Maltol
1 drop MTS Vape Wizard for purely psychological reasons, primarily fear

...and it's actually not half bad! Very strong espresso undertone, stronger than a lot of coffee/espresso juices I've tried. A bit of cocoa on the exhale. Been vaping it for the past half-hour without fainting so far.

I'm going to leave it overnight and give it another try in the morning. Its tamed quite a bit, but its still potent giving such a strong flavour at only 5%. Still, I think with some experimentation it could actually be decent -- perhaps even 3-4% would be better. Glad I used a cartomizer though -- one false move with this stuff and I can see how you'd have a hard time getting it out of an atty.

Rofl at the MTS comment.

I'll definitely try out that recipe once my flavor's come in from TPA.

OK, so after a day of mellowing its still a little on the strong side, so I added:

one more drop of vape wizard
one more ethyl maltol
two drops of vanilla custard
another 100 drops of PG/VG (bringing it to 6ml)

and its a lot more tame now at half the strength and with a little sweetness injection. Definitely very espresso-heavy, but it produces nice vapor, and is actually quite pleasant now.

Still, even at just 2.5% the flavour is quite distinct -- and thats with enough vape wizard to completely strip any semblance of taste from most 30ml bottles of juice. This has gotta be a contender for one of the most (if not the most) concentrated flavours out there.
