Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Laboravape fully complies with the requirements of the legislator. The liquid packaging being 50 ml, it does not contain any harmful substances. So you will not find a pictogram or a raised triangle. I regret the absence of the latter. Indeed, once boosted, it could be useful for visually impaired vapers to have a warning. But hey ... It is not mandatory.

Comments on the packaging
Ares, the god of war, is featured in this visual. On a very dark background, the comic book-style character stands out with his big red hair. The glossy paper enhances the visual and reminds me of comic book album covers. The whole is neat, sticks perfectly to the name of the product.
The brand name is missing. It leaves the greatest place in the name of the god, inscribed in red capital letters.
A note, the legal information is written on the sides of the bottle in a slightly lighter box. It is well seen, because it remains discreet but very readable.

Comments on the taste of the juice
Arès is advertised as a liquid with coffee, vanilla and hazelnut flavors… Hmm, a gourmet liquid!
The smell of coffee is clear and pleasant. In the taste test, the coffee, rather light, not very bitter, is well delivered. It is softened by vanilla, which brings a touch of sugar and smoothness. The hazelnut makes its appearance at the end of the vape and enriches the recipe. Arès is dry, not very sweet. The vapor is dense and fragrant.
The flavors are very light. I would have liked one of the ingredients to be a little more dominant to give more pep to this liquid. The whole is pleasant but does not mark the spirits.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Ares is to be enjoyed with a coffee to enhance its flavors, at any time of the day. Considering its pg / vg ratio, it will withstand a fairly hot vape and will fill you with its vapors. This ratio will draw your attention in the choice of your resistances. But having tested Ares over several days, I noticed that it did not clog the cotton of the dripper. The airflow should be opened moderately so as not to lose flavor.

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.38 / 5 
My mood ticket on this juice
A rumor from Olympus tells that Ares laid down his weapons and recharged his energy by drinking a good coffee. After the effort, the comfort! Arès is a cocooning liquid, an invitation to relax. It is very light in its flavors.
For me, it's a nice liquid but lacks character. I would have liked a stronger coffee flavor. It is a liquid that will find its followers, lovers of light and well-made liquids.
