Comments on the packaging
First of all, I must thank Claude Henaux for giving us a preview of his entire premium range. This attention evokes two aspects that give our work a certain value for all the vapers who follow us. Trust first of all, in the quality and sincerity of our approach in the most objective expertise possible of the work of the creators of e-liquids. Finally, the risk-taking of these teams, who give up to criticism, the fruit of several months' labor to develop these assemblies and do not hesitate, if necessary, to question a formulation that is poorly perceived.
Claude presents us with a premium range that he himself says: "In search of authenticity, our juices are designed and produced in France by a team of passionate fans of real tastes, with aromas and raw materials from the best producers on the market" . To add to these qualities, he packs them in an elegant glass bottle, reminiscent of those used in perfumery.
A transparent rectangular vial, with a pipette cap, as it should, to preserve the integrity of the juices. It is up to you to remove it from the UV radiation, the accent is put on the enhancement of the natural colors and the visibility of the remaining level. An embossed cardboard case accompanies and protects the bottle, it is hollowed out on the back side to allow you to read the information on the regulatory label.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
It's impeccable, like what we are entitled to expect from a high-end product and as it should be for all e-liquids. Each bottle is numbered, as well as each batch placed on the market, traceability is ensured. A DLUO and all the regulatory information appear on the label. Knowing that, I quote:
"All our flavors are analyzed by an independent laboratory, and are accompanied by their MSDS (safety sheet).
All our liquids are on a base of:
60% Vegetable Glycerin (pharmacopoeial quality USP),
<40% Vegetable Propylene Glycol (USP pharmacopoeia quality),
Food flavors.
Nicotine (pharmacopoeial quality USP) ».
We have every reason to believe that this No. 4 is part of a completely safe production, without the addition of colors, sweeteners and other preservatives.

Comments on the packaging
We are in the presence of a rectangular thick glass vial of 81,75mm, (excluding screw thread and stopper) of square section (28mm side), quite original in this sector. All scriptures on the main label are gold and silver. The mask and the feather are delicately affixed, as if to remind us of the creative spirit of writers and theater artists, unless it is the famous Parisian radio show. It is in any case, a label worked and pleasant to look at.
Let's not forget the cardboard case (recyclable like the rest of the packaging) which preserves your juice of light, (not 100% however) and which also reflects a desire for distinction, branding.
The price of this set is very correct, what will be the juice?

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 5/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
A characteristic fruity odor escapes immediately at the opening, that of blackcurrant. When cold, this liquid seems powerfully dosed.
To taste, the aromatic power of the fruit is accentuated by the mint effect that did not appear in huming, this n ° 4 is not very sweet, it is almost peppered, probably because of the presence of a mint with a spicy taste connotation .
At the vape, the power is still there. Blackcurrant is authentically ripe, always not very sweet, not really acidic, but slightly acidic. The amplitude is balanced between these two flavors, because it is not crystal menthol but a mint. The taste, which the mint exhausse, lingers long in the mouth, the flavors are realistic, natural.
We are not dealing with a syrup, but a rigorously dosed blend with a hint of natural fruit sugar that gives it the rank of fruity. Fresh fruit, it goes without saying! Personally I find it very good, almost original and undoubtedly very successful.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
This n ° 4 will be better on normal powers according to your montages. Better than if you opt for the overpower that will significantly alter the balance of flavors, the mint will be more spicy while the blackcurrant will take a bitter taste, almost bitter. On the other hand, the values a little below the normal will pass without problem.
The base used here gives the full measure of its characteristics: a dense vape supplied with steam. Because this range has matured several weeks before its availability, the aromas are sufficiently dissolved and amply restored. The creators have perfectly balanced the two dominant for an unequivocal result. You will not notice the discomforts of PG plant like a dry mouth and a passage a little irritating in the throat in the long run. The hit, 6 mg / ml of nicotine, is also moderate.
This juice does not deposit excessively on the coils, your clearomizers will be good customers to savor it tight.

My mood ticket on this juice
This liquid with a strong character is above all a premium, a kind of grand cru to enjoy, a whole day. It will not be an allday for many of us, considering its cost. This assembly, many times proposed is one of the best I had the opportunity to taste. The formulation and dosage are perfect, it is not disgusting and its length in the mouth testifies to its power. An aerial vape with a large amount of steam does not scare him, he supports the airy dilution but less the big powers.
The packaging is at least original, the high quality manufacturing respects the safety rules. It is, in my opinion, so well designed, dosed, and presented, it deserves to be among the top jus Vapelier. This No. 4 will be appreciated by all fans of fruity / mint juices, drier than syrupy.
Tell us about it as soon as it is available soon. I assure you, you will find it at 0mg, 3mg, 6mg and 12mg / ml of nicotine.
See you soon.
