Comments on the packaging

The packaging of our pin-up of the day, Fruit Connection, is done in a black glass bottle, totally opaque. This product from the Pin-Up range has a capacity of 20ml. Its nicotine level is available in 0, 3, 6, 11 or 16mg / ml.

Bio concept also makes available to vapers who wish it, different distributions of the base liquid with a percentage of 80% propylene glycol for 20% of vegetable glycerin in order to favor the flavors and avoid too quickly scaling your assembly.

The opposite is also possible with propylene glycol 20% for vegetable glycerine 80%, so you will get a higher production of steam, more dense for flavors a little less generous. Otherwise the balance is possible with a base 50 / 50 PG / VG that allows a fit between steam and flavor that usually remains a good compromise.

The orientation of Fruit Connection is fruity.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 3.63 / 5 3.6 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The standards are respected for this product which ensures the safety of the bottle and provides clear pictograms, however, I very much regret the absence of the embossing marking which is an essential reference for the visually impaired and which signals the presence of nicotine in vial.

The composition is well noted on the label and indicates the presence of pharmacopoeial quality water among the ingredients.

Under the precautions of use and the composition, one has the address and the telephone of the manufacturer which enables us if necessary, to join this consumer service. Also, an expiry date is provided but unfortunately I have not found a lot number. On the other hand, a certification number is noted in very small on the graphic design.

The manufacturer declares on its site the absence of parabens, ambrox, alcohol and affirms that its nicotine is from vegetable sources with a purity of 99,9% USP (“American” Pharmacopoeia)

A product for which he does not miss much to be in total conformity, but remains to see two / three points again.

  • The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: Yes

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

Comments on the packaging

The packaging is rather flattering and attracts the eye, knowing that a large majority of vapers are men, place a pin-up for graphics, necessarily, it challenges.

The label with a black background is plasticized and easily withstands liquid dripping without erasing the inscriptions. It is organized in three parts: the first is a broad white band that gives us the name of the laboratory and roughly the percentage of PG / VG, then we see a kind of stamp that labels this product by guaranteeing its French manufacture.

The second shot highlights the juice pin-up that she represents with the name, Fruit Connection. Then we see the inscriptions which announce the usual precautions, the composition and the laboratory. Then we find the pictograms with the DLUO, the capacity, the range and of course the nicotine rate.

It must be recognized that the packaging is well designed and very well organized.

  • This liquid reminds me of: a mixture of yellow peach and apricot fruit fragrance

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

On the smell, this liquid is indicative, we have a superb smell of ripe yellow peach with a slightly weaker apricot scent. This smell is powerful and sweet.

With the vape it is not quite the same, the aromas are less powerful but the peach-apricot mixture is felt well. The flavors are sweet, fruity, sweet with a certain consistency.

In the mouth, it is a juice that is pleasant and round, although I very badly distinguishes the taste of caramel, it is certainly he who brings this sweet and carnal note to the liquid, to make it attractive.

Usually I'm not drawn to its fruit flavors, but it must be said that the reconstitution of the aromas feels good, apart from the caramelized note, which in my opinion is too shy.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

This Fruit Connection is a fruitiness which, like many products of this type, tends to denature when the power is too strong. With a resistance of 0,9Ω and up to 28W we obtain a nice soft composition, generous in aroma and pleasant. But the more you spice up the assembly and the watts, the more the flavors will be altered by a little chemical and harsh taste.

So I advise you to vape on simple coil assemblies or tight clearomizers which will reveal beautiful tasty flavors.

My test product is in 6mg / ml of nicotine and a percentage of PG / VG in 50 / 50, with these dosages, both the hit and the steam remain normal and average. They correspond completely to their respective dosage.

My mood ticket on this juice

Fruit Connection is a liquid that is part of the fruity genre. A pleasant, smooth juice and well reproduced flavors. However, it remains sensitive to too elaborate assemblies or too high powers, it does not support heating without altering the tastes. It is therefore preferable to vape this juice with resistives in temperature control or on small assemblies in single coil without going below 1Ω.

The packaging is really pretty and it's not these gentlemen who are going to contradict me, a pin-up is always pleasant to look at and even on a 20ml bottle, the charm acts. Unfortunately, labeling compliance is not perfect, yet it wouldn't lack much to be appropriate and fully compliant with EU regulations.

These are not my taste guidelines and I won't splurge on its flavors, but the fact remains that the taste is quite faithful to a peach-apricot blend.
