I have a bad habit of just overwriting my inventory with the new ones, so like my french vanilla was diyfs but when I ran out I ordered TFA, instead of making a new entry I just changed it lol confusing my own self now :D

I got the "shipped" email notification Monday afternoon, and my Order status says Shipped. But as of just 2 minutes ago...the USPS tracking info shows:

"Status
Your package is on its way to a USPS facility.

Pre-Shipment
May 27, 2019 at 12:53 pm
Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item
MORRISVILLE, NC 27560"

So, mine hasn't even made it to a PO yet. Not even a big order to get ready for shipment...only 5 flavorings, 90mLs total. ;)
Yeah, that's exactly what my order did. Then, it suddenly updated late this morning with Tuesday and Wednesday movements, including the fact that it cleared Knoxville this morning. For my mail, next stop is Chattanooga then my house tomorrow.

I'm betting the same thing is happening with you and Fran and that the package is actually on its way. The great thing about BCF is we know there won't be a fight if a problem actually does arise. They will take care of it.

I have FW, can't say as I've not tried it by itself.... I've only used it in my clove recipe

it's kind of a root beer flavor (ish) it's used a lot in root beer drinks and things like that....

I haven't caught up, are you looking for a good sassafras or have one? Pretty sure I'll need one eventually since I want to do a Birch Beer liquid but can't find any recipes for one.

I asked about the French Cafe Napoleon on one of the FB mixing sites and was told to mix it alone at 16%. I think I will make testers mixing it at 10% with 1% each of my various coffee flavors - VTA Cafe Latte, VTA Coffee Base, and PUR Cappuccino Coffee. I am really not a coffee vape person but am curious enough to make the testers and figure out exactly what I am working with in the French Cafe Napoleon. Does it need more cream? How does it work iced? There is only one way to find out. :)

There are FB groups for DIY?

Sorry about that... I didn't even think to look there. Thanks.:)

When you say Pur Mango, you are referring to this one? Purilum Mango

The ones that caught my attention were:
Nicotine River Mango (supposed to be NR/PUR's sweet ripe mango version)
Nicotine River Mango Sour (supposed to be NR/PUR's sour mango version)
Nicotine River Golden Eye (supposed to be a bend of sweet & sour versions, and (maybe?) additional fruits.

How is the Purilum labeled one different?
For the Golden Eye, how noticeable/forward are the additional fruit notes? Or, are they hidden in the background, and just filling out the mango profile.

Sorry for the million questions. You just seem to have a lot of experience with Purilum and NR brands. :)
Yes on the first one. Its a good mango but it takes a while to get that way. Not good as a snv but in a couple weeks it totally changes. Golden eye, I dont get any other notes but maybe its just me. Could be some have used it to high like the pur one. Dont go past 3% with golden eye or it gets perfummy. I like it with mixes like tropical blends or other fruits. I have the sweet ripe but havent tried it. Havent tried the mango sour either.

    My first order has shipped and is scheduled for Friday. My second order that I placed on Sunday says the same thing as yours. They must have just had a ton of orders and couldn't keep up.

    I used to have a coffee liquid years ago that I really liked. I'm curious about the Napoleon. I might have to try that one.

    Got one new and four remixes done. I hate to admit this, but I had to hunt the freaking marshmallow down AGAIN! I think I’m going to chain it to the case. 200+ flavors, and only ONE I can’t keep up with :confused:
    At least you found it this time:lol:

    No kidding!! It was hiding in the nuts (wrong case, wrong side). To boot, THIS is the replacement marshmallow for the one I never found! I’m thinking of getting a 4oz bottle just so it can’t play hide and seek :lol:.

    Thanks, @dc99; that's exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for. :thumb:

    You need to put a bell on that one. Or, maybe a ribbon, like a luggage bag.
