I'm pretty new here and I'm in search for a pumpkin spice juice or even a recipe someone may have to contribute I've tried making my ovn as I do most of my liquids but every time I try to make pumpkin spice it tastes like I'm licking a bowl of potpori for some reason but really wanting a good pumpkin spice and some suggestions on good flavors to try.

Any help is apreciated!!!

Okay, the good the bad and the ugly. TFA Pumpkin Spice tastes primarily like clove. It's very strong, used it at 2% in a coffee mix and it tastes like clove cigarettes.

TFA has another flavor called Holiday Spice that I haven't tried but it tastes primarily like nutmeg. I'm assuming it's just as strong.

I'm just testing a Capella Pumpkin Pie Spice, started it out at 1% but still haven't tasted it. It smells more like ALL the spices you would put in a pie, but I don't know how it tastes yet. Reports are it is also very strong.

I was just testing Pumpkin Spice this week. Here were my findings. in 50/50 12 mg 10 ml.
1% there but light
2% there but light
3% better but light
4% still light
5% light
7% better
9 ok but not quite there
10% better but decided I don't want to go much higher. good spice flavor.
I think it would be better as a mixer, not stand alone

+1 AGREE!

For 'bakery vapes' that want a typical 'spice blend' of cinnamon, clove & nutmeg - a good starting point is:
.5% Pumpkin Pie spice (mostly clove)
.5% Holiday Spice (mostly nutmeg)
.5% Cinnamon Natural (all TFA)

(Started this post earlier in the day - just now read some of the more current posts).

Wowee-zowee - I can't even imagine going over 1-2% with the Pumpkin Pie Spice. Taste is just crazy-subjective, that's for sure (and for certain!).

I tried to make pumpkin spice because my wife loves that flavor and I used the TFA flavoring and just like others have mentioned it was nothing but clove flavor to me and her. I ended up buying Pumpkin Spice from Desert Vapes and it is right on with the flavor. I still want to successfully make some of my own so I got some pumpkin flavor to mix with it to bring out the pumpkin flavor more. I've not tried it yet so I can't say if it will be any good.

I have made a Pumpkin Spice cupcake with Cream Cheese Icing that, IMO, turned out fabulous. I used TFA Pumpkin Spice and LA Cream Cheese Icing. I have not tried these flavors alone. I HATE clove cigs or spice. The smell and/or taste make me want to vomit. If it was entirely clove I can't imagine I would like it so much. But, like I said, I haven't vaped it as a single flavor. I never intended to do that so I can't say one way or the other.

Would love this recipe if you're up for sharing! :)
