Comments on the packaging

In the Taffe-elec range of e-liquids, we were able to test many effective tobaccos, exquisite delicacies and convincing fruity flavors. But a juice catalog, no matter how advanced, would not be complete and would not be aimed at everyone if it did not contain some menthol references.

Also, I have the great pleasure of presenting Hollywood, the first contender for the title in the above-mentioned category. Although his surname is largely evocative, we will do a complete analysis to see if the result matches the underlying promise.

First of all, let's dispel a preconceived idea. Chlorophyll doesn't taste like you think! I'm very sorry to destroy your illusions like this, but that's how it is. The magic of the “chlorophyll taste” comes from a famous brand of chewing gum that we won’t mention 🙄. Indeed, this manufacturer put the marketing magnifying glass on the chlorophyll which it used as a green coloring for its chewable tablets and not as a flavoring.

The true taste of chlorophyll is grassy, ​​a little bitter. It is found in common foods like spinach or broccoli. So, if your chewing gum of choice contained chlorophyll flavoring, there's a good chance you wouldn't like it! Unless you have an appetite for sweet vegetables, of course.

With this clarification made, let’s look at our liquid of the day.

Hollywood comes to us in a 70 ml bottle containing 50 ml of overdosed aroma, so avoid consuming as is. It will be necessary to extend it by one or two boosters to obtain levels of 3 or 6 mg/ml of nicotine, which will be all the easier as the lid of the bottle tilts to make the exercise childish. In this format, it costs the very low price of €9.90, which remains excellent news for vapers.

It also exists at 10 ml format. In this case, it is available for €3.90, still a friendly price, in rates of 0, 3, 6 and 11 mg/ml of nicotine.

Suffice to say that it will be complicated not to find the right shoe in this range...

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

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

… especially since the manufacturer has taken particular care with the safety of its liquids. We still have the perfect example before our eyes. No sucralose. No weird coloring. A legality that borders on mania and all the security elements present at the call!

The brand even gives the name of the allergenic molecules in the composition for the extremely rare cases of documented sensitivity to these compounds. In short, it's serious!

Appreciation of the packaging

  • Do the graphic design of the label and the name of the product agree? Yes
  • Global correspondence of the packaging with the product name: Yes
  • 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

You can also be very serious while loving poetry. This is what Hollywood packaging evokes, poetry. Taking up the effective graphic charter of the range, the label is available here in green, and not in verse. A pastel green that serves as a backdrop for naive illustrations that seem to fall from the sky. Mint leaf here, chewing gum tablet there.

Not only does the rendering benefit from a high sympathy coefficient, but it remains largely illustrative of taste. Elegant to the end of the dropper which, due to its finesse, will easily fill all vaping systems.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

By testing the manufacturer's previous achievements, we quickly understood that it did not do things like everyone else. And we accepted that as a huge advantage. Indeed, what is the point of copying ad nauseum a recipe that has already been reproduced a thousand times by others?

Hollywood will not deny this fact. If the smell immediately cajoles the nostrils and is reminiscent of the well-known chewing gum, the taste is similar, of course, but also knows how to show its difference.

We first have a powerful, almost wild spearmint. It is sometimes coupled with a peppermint effect which pleasantly tickles the tongue. A very present note of bubble gum, more traditional, encompasses the duo to make it docile and sweet.

There isn't too much sugar. And that's where this liquid stands out. It is at the crossroads between the famous confectionery and a more natural and solid mint.

A wind of freshness, noticeable but measured, is responsible for bringing the desired soothing sensation.

A recipe crafted to the nines, in subtle balance. Perfect.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

Ideal in a pod and as is very common in the range, Hollywood can also be vaped in a sassy ato DL. It all depends on the effect you want to promote. Spicy and precise in a pod or an MTL ato, dense and chilly in a wide open DL ato, everything will depend on your choices. But both options are entirely valid.

To vape with green tea, cold or hot, or as a complement to a fruity snack. Even a dark chocolate ice cream for the naughty souls.

Recommended Moments

My mood ticket on this juice

Hollywood is successful! This is the logical conclusion of this test which reveals the impertinence of Taffe-elec when playing with the icons. Instead of the endless “chlorophyll” potion painfully imitating chewing gum whose taste disappears after five minutes, the brand offers us an accomplished liquid, between confectionery and real mint, which is fascinating to discover.

It's simple, sober and tasteful. What more ? An attractive price, there you have it! What else ? Top-notch security? It’s sold with it! A Top Vapelier? Ok, it's won!
