Comments on the packaging

A candy that comes out for Halloween? It would almost make you want to dress up and go out on the street to try to bring some home, wouldn't it? 🎃

If you like sweets in your vape, you certainly know the Barnum Show range from Solana, which has made a specialty of copying the known references in the field, with, it must be admitted, great taste successes at the key.

Today, we welcome the youngest of the siblings or rather the youngest since it is a blue character well known to comic book lovers. Here, she bears the modest name of BB Blue which fits her like a glove on one hand, or the opposite!

Available in a 50 ml bottle of aroma that you can add 10 ml of neutral base or booster to obtain 60 ml of mix between 0 and 3 mg/ml of nicotine, BB Blue presents a careful balance between PG and VG of 50/50, ideal for the taste category announced.

The price of 19.00 € is slightly below the market average and that's good for consumers!

If you have no idea what to expect, take a look in the confectionery section of your supermarket and see if you see blue candy… you will definitely find it!

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

Again, there is nothing to complain about this item. Solana has long mastered and their liquids are largely in the nails of legality and benefit from all the necessary controls to ensure their safety for vapers.

Mention is made of the presence of damascenone, an aromatic compound naturally present in roses or apricots, among other plants. Avoid only if you know you have a particular allergy to this molecule. Otherwise, you can vape in peace.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 5 / 5 5 5 out of stars

Comments on the packaging

Any resemblance to a well-known heroine from the world of comics would be purely accidental and coincidental, of course! 🙄

Especially since the heroine in question has gained in sensuality and badass attitude in her mutation present on the label of the bottle and the box that goes with it. It's funny and perfectly done by a lively designer and it gives an excellent indication of the taste aspect that we will develop later. Fun and adapted, it's perfect!

This is not done at the expense of seriousness and all informative materials are perfectly readable. A little extra about the fact that the edges of the label do not meet, which leaves a good view of the remaining liquid!

  • Is the color and the name of the product in agreement? Yes
  • Do the smell and the name of the product agree? Yes
  • Definition of smell: Lemony, Confectionery
  • Definition of taste: Sweet, Lemon, Confectionery
  • Are the taste and the name of the product in agreement? Yes
  • Did I like this juice? I won't splurge on it

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 4.4 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

We live in a great time where current liquids are becoming more and more credible when it comes to emulating a real model. And our national BB is no exception to this virtuous rule. So, if you like the famous Smurfs sweets from the famous brand of confectionery Haribo©, you will be in heaven!

Indeed, we find here everything that makes the taste of the jelly candy. A strong flavor of candy, tangy and slightly lemony, full of pep and very addictive, is felt from the first puff.

A very recognizable elderberry note quickly stands out to give the liquid all the particularity of blue candy.

Even the texture in the mouth imitates the model to perfection, with this slight annoying aspect in the mouth which energizes the whole and takes the realism even further.

The weightless recipe, very credible, will therefore easily appeal to fans of confectionery and others because it plays with great mastery on the winning sugar/acidity combo to reproduce the chosen reference.

A liquid that will please by its duality between dynamic and gourmet vape.

  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.30 Ω

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The viscosity of the liquid predestines it to invest in all evaporation systems, from pods to rebuildable atomizers. It will be at its best in an RDL or MTL device to retain all the punch that characterizes it. More airy, it does not come undone because its aromatic power is notable.

Perfect in lukewarm/cold temperatures, it can even be refreshed by a suitable booster for fans of freshness.

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: Morning, All afternoon during everyone's activities
  • Can this juice be recommended as an all-day vape: No

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.58 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

Solana invites us to a great tasting with the BB Blue, which absolutely does not usurp its surname.

The magic works easily and the candy of the clouds will appeal to amateurs who will find here everything they like in the azure confectionery. For others, it will remain a pleasant liquid to vape at specific times and will seduce with its very realistic acidic aspects. For total refractories to liquids in the confectionery category, there will undoubtedly be other ranges at Solana than the Barnum Show to tempt you!
