Melenomenon is freaking awesome. A new adv for me. Gonna order 30 ml more soon.

It is good, and I can see how people really like it..

But since I'm not really a melon fan, I wish the melon wasn't over-powering the peach so much..


A few minutes ago I added a little peach flavoring to my clearo of Melonpokemon, which helped "neutralize" the melon -- but in doing so, made the entire juice waaaaaay too flavorful! :facepalm: :laugh:


Definitely more melon than peach after a couple days steeping..

If people are into that sort of thing, they should definitely give it a try, cuz it is good stuff...


I wish it were more up my alley -- so I could make my own version.. ;)

(Instead, I'll be using my peach for a Peachez & Kreem... :drool:)

I think it kinda taste like a really fruity bubblegum. I can taste the cucumber a ton too. I am vaping on a .7 ohm dual coil on my Origen.

Fortunately I only taste more of a general minimal sense of cucumber in Mehnamehna..


I guess I don't "get" the whole cucumber thing..

Cucumber tea? Cucumber vodka??


And this..?

Just committed to my first order!

x Catherine the Grape - 3 MG / 30 ML for $19.00 each
1x Strawb-Gwab - 3 MG / 30 ML for $19.00 each
1x Night Shift - 3 MG / 30 ML for $19.00 each

I jumped when I saw the comp.

Good first order!
You may find that the two fruits need some steeping.
NS is usually good FOOB, but it will change as it steeps.
Let us know what ya think!!

Not sure if I'm getting really selective vaper's tongue, or the juice has changed on me again in the past 2 days..

I think it might be the latter..


It's like the peach & melon dropped off big-time, and getting a lot more cucumber now.. I liked it better before.. :(

Almost done, anyway..

Maybe it's just my batch and/or nic strength, but might be a good idea to stick with smaller bottles on this one, and vape it early & often..


Curious what others' experience is with this over the longer run.. I got mine about 8 days ago, for reference...

Unfortunately, today I'm going to be throwing out about 360ml of Velvet Cloud Vapor - White Beard, Night Shift, Vanilla Custard. This was all purchased in February and it seems it's all gone bad already. I'm a big fan of Velvet Cloud Vapor and love these flavors, but I don't think their mix carries these flavors for long. It seems that all the flavors with mixes of vanillas, caramels and chocolates go really flat - and fast. In fact, all three of those flavors have changed so much that they all taste the same - and the taste is not good. I've tried the flavors in new devices, with new heads, different cartos... none of the original flavor or taste is there anymore. I feel I have a PG sensitivity, but pulled out my old bottles of PG/VG mixes from bottles that are older than the VCV bottles I bought in February and those flavors are all still there 100% and many taste better than they originally tasted. There is definitely a very, very short shelf life for some of the VCV flavors. I'm pretty disappointed, as I spent a lot of money. In the future, I'll have to buy 15ml or 30ml bottles from them.

That's too bad that yours has gone bad. I still have a bottle of Wild Cherries that is vapable.

Got my recent order yesterday. Two free samples! Summer sweet and strawb gawb.
I tried the melanoninin. Good melon taste at first, but then the cucumber took over for me. The next three or so flavors I dripped in my RDA had a cucumber aftertaste! I'll let this one steep for a week or so and try again.

My bottles of Blue Beard still taste ok, so I definitely think it's the chocolate, caramel, vanillas that go flat. There just isn't even a hint of the original flavors left in the bottles that are only 4 months old.

I'm surprised about the Vanilla Custard, and even a little about the White Beard..

But yeah, that Night Shift is gonna change on you..


VCV has a shorter shelf-life than probably a fair amount of other juices.. It's the natural flavorings -- breaking down..

I've never vaped any of their stuff past much more than 2 months, but even at that point, some of them are starting to go..


It's about trade-offs, I guess..

Not only is it about taste, but I'm sketched-out about vaping artificial flavorings.. In my eyes, natural has the "right" balance of a bunch of individual chemicals.. While odds are, artificial contains a few heavily-concentrated ones which best represent what it's trying to re-create -- and if one of those heavily-concentrated chemicals happens to be bad for your lungs? I don't like those odds...

So I willingly accept shorter shelf-life, in exchange for what *I* believe to be less health risk.. (Heck, I could be wrong.. But evidence suggests otherwise..)


IMO, in most instances, e-liquid probably *should* start to go bad after a fairly short while..

Just as food should... All set with those ever-lasting Twinkies & McDonald's hamburgers, thanks... :)

Excuse me, but it's spelled "Melonpokemon"... ;)


Yeah, not sure about that steeping thing, Dawg..

All I know is that over the course of 9 days, mine tasted mostly peach & melon, then mostly melon -- then mostly cucumber..

Mine's all vaped up.. But if I were smart, I'd have saved a couple ml & did a steeping test..


Let us know.. Curious how it turns out!

It happens! :laugh:


I've found myself twice having over 600ml.. Probably more like 650ml..

(I believe RuDawg was over 1 liter at one point! But a half-liter was Unflavored..?)


It's the sales that get you.. I guess it's easy to get caught up in it all..

Then one day you look in your juice cupboard, and you're like, "Aww.. ish" :D


Of course, both those times had staggered purchase dates, and a good chunk of it was Unflavored..

Was creepy how it sneaks up on you, though.. And what makes it worse is if you're cutting back nic levels during all this..


I've got a bunch of VCV right now.. But I should be okay, as long as I'm mindful to vape up the flavors that go first...

I really want to dive deeper into DIY, but I can't right now... :(
