Comments on the packaging

Today, it is the turn of the “Betty Boop” to pass to the Vapelier mill.

This time around, the definition is more conventional: “Absinthe, liquorice, sweetness, freshness and ..."
These liquids are packaged in translucent plastic bottles, with the choice of two capacities: 10 or 30 ml. If the proposal of the different nicotine levels, 00, 03, 06, 12 and 18 mg / ml is usual, that of access to the personalized request of the PG / VG ratio and the nicotine level is much less.

Once again, no breach of legal obligations.
The postal coordinates of the laboratory are indicated but no e-mail address or website and even less a telephone number. We are also entitled to the text “Not recommended for pregnant women” instead of the logo usually used. It does not matter but in the current Tpdology, it will not be tolerated for long.
As such, we have obtained additional information. Very soon, the safety data sheets (SDS) will be online on the manufacturer's website and new labels will be produced with telephone numbers in addition to the postal address. Of which act, in front of the responsiveness of the manufacturer, we therefore consider that the label contains the compliant elements.
In the safety and health register. We remind you that these juices are free of water, alcohol and colorings. Likewise, there is no sugar or other additives.

Comments on the packaging
Regarding the packaging, I also spoke about it in the review of the two other opus, I am disappointed. Not by the work done by Infinivap because I know all too well the time usually spent on this step. Only, I think that today, in this very competitive market of e-liquids, a manufacturer needs a more rewarding image. If the company had two ranges and 3 juices to offer, that could be okay, but this is not the case since the catalog is diverse, complete and offers a plethora of references.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 3.75/5
Comments on the taste of the juice
"Absinthe, liquorice, sweetness, freshness and ... “. This is the description offered for this Betty Boop.
The smell, it's aniseed ... After tasting a mini-drop, I confirm it's aniseed but not that ... Here, that's it, Infinivap has rubbed off on me, I fall into the description too in suspension points ...
As much to say it right away, I do not really like. There is liquorice, that yes. I think the light touch of freshness is brought by the absinthe but I have the impression that, as if that wasn't enough, a touch of anise would have been added. For my taste, it's really too much and the use of a dripper will only reinforce this feeling ... unless of course you are an aficionado of this root.
Afterwards, we must still recognize that, in terms of style, they did not do too badly because I still remember certain juices of the same type with a much more (too much!) Flavor. Here, we are in the style but with a sufficiently evolved recipe not to fall into the caricature.
In the end, licorice lasts quite a long time and will be more or less attenuated depending on the choice of your atomizer. On this ratio of 50 / 50 PG / VG, the liquid is vaporizable on the vast majority of models available on the market.
Tasting recommendations

- Type of vapor obtained at this power: Dense

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
It was with a Zenith double coil and a Hobbit single coil that I started this sequence.
I made assemblies between 0,25 and 0,85Ω for a power output of 20 to 60 watts.
The Betty Boop accepts to be jostled and I have never faulted it. The flavors will evolve but it will remain faithful to the initial sensation. Note that under the effect of higher temperatures, liquorice takes up more space.
In all setups I found the vapor to be dense and realistic with the 50/50 PG / VG ratio provided for this review. The hit is light but consistent for 3 mg / ml of nicotine.
To confirm my impressions, I continued my tests on a Bellus atomizer from UD in double coil.
I also opted for the use of Fiber Freaks Cotton Blend in density 2 as capillary because it has the particularity of being “neutral” in terms of taste. Another advantage of Fiber, no more dry-hits since this capillary does not burn.
For optimum flavor rendering, a steep time from 8 to 15 days is recommended by Infinivap.

My mood ticket on this juice
The recipe developed by Infinivap for this Betty Boop is not original but has the merit of being well balanced.
This anise flavor is special and will delight those initiated in the genre. Even if it is not in my vaping habits and it has not found favor with my palate, the mixture is never disgusting.
Fans of the genre will be delighted all the more so as here, no harmful effects due to absinthe 😉.
You can vape without moderation for a modest price which places this juice in the entry-level category.
This Betty Boop is also generating beautiful clouds.
Long live the vape and live the free vape,
Marquolive
