Comments on the packaging

Curious Eliquides is a French brand based in Paris. It offers three ranges of liquids, the classics, the Tea Party range and finally the Curieux Edition Astrale range from which the “Galatée” liquid is produced. It is packaged either in a 10ml vial with zero nicotine level, or in a 60ml vial with the possibility of adding nicotine boosters or base to achieve a nicotine level of 0, 3 or 6mg / ml.

The packaging is relatively well thought out because the bottle contains 40ml of liquid, the juices are overdosed in flavor and depending on the packaging chosen (except for the 10ml of course) the liquids are delivered with additional bottles in a duo boost pack to obtain 60ml in the end. of product dosed to perfection, moreover the tip of the bottle can be unscrewed to facilitate filling.

Galatea liquid, like the rest of the range, has a PG / VG ratio of 40 / 60, and is distributed in a clear, flexible plastic bottle that can hold 60ml of juice. Offered at a price of 24,90 €, it ranks among the mid-range juices.

Comments on the packaging

The “Galatée” liquid offered by Curieux Eliquides is packaged either in a 10ml vial or in 60ml. Here, the packaging used is the one with the 60ml bottle. The packaging is really complete and relatively well done, the aromas are overdosed and designed to receive, as desired, nicotine or not. So in the pack we have the bottle with 40ml of juice, two 10ml vials in booster or base depending on the desired nicotine content. The set is placed in a relatively well decorated cardboard box with the “comic book style” drawing of the mythical character relating to the name of the liquid. The bottle label uses the same aesthetic codes as the box.

The name of the juice is written on the front of the box on a white band with the specific characteristics of the liquid just below. Above the box, its main characteristics are listed, making it easy to identify the liquid.

The whole packaging is really well done, well thought out, complete and above all I find the illustrations superb!
