Comments on the packaging
Among the 15 tobacco flavors in the range at Flavor Art, we come across blond, cigars, blends, browns and each time we can see that this taste is accompanied by various notes sometimes woody, sometimes "herbal" and sometimes greedy, but always discreet. The liquids are made with a base of vegetable origin (non GMO) of pharmaceutical grade (USP EP) proportioned to 50% PG, 40% VG, and 10% of water aromas and possibly nicotine at 0,45 respectively %, 0,9% or 1,8%.
Your vial of e-liquid will be in transparent PET of 10ml, the only volume now marketable (containing nicotine), this option will not protect the content from UV radiation, even though the plastic label covers 85% of the surface display of the vial. The flavors are food grade and free from unwanted compounds for our use: (ambrox, diacetyl, paraben). No coloring, alcohol, sugar or additives added to the preparation, which should therefore be considered as not presenting any proven health risk.
The flavor of the day is dark, as the name suggests. Dark Vapure is a brown tobacco that I will try to unveil nuances and vapors characteristics during this chronicle. Just say it right away, this liquid is not intended for cloud chasers, as shown by its VG content, it is by its nature and price, designed for primo vapoteurs and I will add those who consider, with the help of the vape, to get out of the cigarette, keeping sensations known.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
The bottle is regulated with technical safety. Its cap is attached to the bottle, it is divided into three parts, including a cap (also attached to the cap), which is opened by pressing laterally, and lifting, and a dropper end molded into the structure of this original closure.
Labeling, if properly provided with the required written information and recommendations, is not really well organized and somewhat illegible without a magnifying glass. I must note the absence of pictograms forbidden at least 18 years, and disadvised pregnant women, shortly mandatory. I have no doubt that the brand will correct these shortcomings by adding them to the manual (or double labeling) essential in 2017, to comply with European directives.

Comments on the packaging
The packaging is quite classic and its label is resistant to nicotine juice, the graphics are minimal, and as for all the juice of this brand impossible to be confused with another.

A packaging that is consistent and conforms to an entry-level product.

Comments on the taste of the juice
Here is a description of this juice which does not have a precise smell when opened: "An E-liquid with a classic brown flavor, woody with notes of liquorice and cocoa". I add that the taste is slightly sweet. It is indeed a tobacco, indeed closer to a brown than a blond, dry and not very fragrant.
It is also surrounded by liquorice in the vape, which does not surpass it and leaves it its rough character.
I honestly did not perceive the coconut, and the more I jostled it the less I succeeded. Like many of his tobacco colleagues from this manufacturer, it is very lightly dosed. You will therefore have to adapt your feelings, using the equipment at your disposal because you will not be able to count with the aromatic power. Its hold in the mouth is very modest. However, it remains more of a tobacco than a gourmet tobacco in my opinion, an authenticity which is however difficult to assert itself as we must vape puff after puff to maintain it over time.
At 4,5mg / ml the hit is quite noticeable, steam production is consistent with the VG content despite the presence of water, it remains quite moderate.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
If you've ever had the opportunity to read one of my columns about Flavor Art liquids, you know what to expect, otherwise I will repeat myself, because the same causes produce similar effects.
We have a low-dose juice in aromas, a low dosage base in VG, and a dilemma arises. If you want to produce a good amount of steam while having a little bit of flavor in your mouth, you will have to heat and air. The result of this option will generate an alarming consumption of juice given the initial volume available, so it will be necessary to choose.
Dark Vapor supports the heating, if you want to appreciate the flavors do not overeat your vape, in other words, choose an ato SC (single coil) around a 2 ohm, with a minimal airflow such as that of a Clearomizer of the genus Protank or eVod.
You will only have to play on the power of your mod (+ 15 to 20%) to obtain a hot vape sufficiently provided with aromas.
The fluidity of the juice as its natural composition does not generate the risk of excessive or rapid deposits on the coils, so it is a liquid suitable for tight atomization devices, proprietary resistors.

My mood ticket on this juice
There are non-nicotine concentrates from this manufacturer available from its French distributor: Absolut Vapor.
As a conclusion I will now give you a little trick Diyeur for the case where you enjoy this juice but find it a little light taste.
Let's assume that you are steaming at 9mg / ml.
Buy 10ml from e-liquid all made at 18mg / ml and 50ml from non-nicotine concentrate in a PG base.
Buy 1 liter of VG (PE grade) in pharmacy (around 12 €).
Get a bottle of 20ml with pipette cap it's easy to find and convenient to recharge your ato.
The idea is to prepare 20ml of juice, at 9mg / ml of nicotine. Proceed as follows: pour 7ml of pure VG into your 20ml flask, add your 10ml volume of ready-made juice, and 3ml of concentrate (shake it well before). Leave to mature for one or two days (or more if necessary) by shaking it from time to time and you have obtained 20ml of juice a little more full-bodied in aromas, at 9mg / ml, in a base closer to 50/50.
The proportions of pure VG and concentrate can of course change according to your tastes.
Do not hesitate to ask for advice and to subscribe to the dedicated DIY forums, a bunch of “drummers” will be happy to take you in hand. As long as you want to stop smoking, the vapors will still be there.
Thank you for your attention
See you soon.
