Comments on the packaging
Flavor Art is one of the oldest European e-liquid brand. This brand is presented a bit like the Italian “Alfaliquid”. It offers a range of entry-level e-liquids which is divided into sub-families: tobacco, fruity, etc.
It comes in a 10 ml flexible plastic bottle equipped with a relatively thin tip (well… a little thick compared to the competition). The PG / VG Ratio is 50/40, yes, it is not 100%, the remaining 10 are a mixture of nicotine (possible), distilled water (5 to 10%) and aromas (1 to 5 %). The available nicotine strengths are 0 / 4,5 / 9/18 mg / ml.
In view of this first information, it is clear that these liquids are intended primarily for first-time buyers, or people who stay on simple gear.
As you can imagine by reading the name, Arctic Winter must blow the cold, it is undoubtedly an icy mint, it is classified without logic in the family of fruity. Is he hiding something from us?

Comments on the packaging
When we discover the label of the Flavor Art bottles we immediately notice that they are entry-level liquids. A label that inspires me with an essential oil type pharmaceutical product. On the top of the white label we find the name and logo of the brand. Just below the nicotine dosage. Each flavor has a rectangular insert in a central position for personalization. In the case of the Arctic Winter, this space is dressed in a gradient of white and very light gray blue. We can distinguish a snowflake, the name is written in large white letters circled in blue. The remainder of the label is devoted to mandatory information and information.
It's bland, when you know the talent of design and Italian style, you could doubt the country of origin of these juices, well, you have to temper this with a fairly low price, so we will be more indulgent on this point.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 3.13/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
It is therefore no surprise that we discover an icy mint as the base and unique flavor of this Arctic Winter. A simple icy mint, fair enough, but which will disappoint those addicted to the hyper strong sensations that we are used to looking for when we vape polar mint. Follower of sub zero or other super strong fresh juice, this liquid will not be violent enough. The mint is just fresh, not enough to catch a cold.

My mood ticket on this juice
I expected a cold snap from the name. Ice mints are often successful and rather aggressive. Here the Arctic winter that Flavor Art offers us is a bit timid. I know strong mint lovers, and I doubt they will adhere to this liquid. At best for them it will have the sensation of a slightly strong mint, but we are very far from references like Sub Zero. This liquid whose classification in fruity leaves me perplexed, is intended for beginners and for those who practice a very wise vape light in aroma, rather tight.
A juice made for initiation, a little light to appeal to informed vapers, one of the only arguments of which is an attractive price.
Good vape
