Comments on the packaging
Creator and craftsman of vaping liquids, the Vaporium has carved out a pretty reputation among insiders who rent a vape rich in taste and praise well-accomplished potions.
At Vapelier, the brand is also well known since it seems to me that we had to review a large part of the catalog.
Personally, I am testing the sign for the first time and I am already looking forward to forming my opinion as I have heard about Vaporium.
Gourmet juice, the Ipanema was supplied to me in a large 60 ml vial but it is also available in 30 ml. This packaging is overdosed in aromas and, once is not customary, the vials are filled to the brim, ie 10 good milliliters more than most of the competitors.
The price, at the usual level of 24 €, is well positioned since not only the vial is full but an empty bottle for the addition of nicotine boosters is offered allowing, in fine, to vape at 3, 5, 6 or 8 mg / ml.
Finally, the recipe is based on a base made of 60% vegetable glycerin, a versatile value allowing consumption on a wide variety of materials.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
If the creations are "house", the realization is entrusted to two partners whose well-established notoriety is indisputable and benchmark.
The specifications are draconian as to the quality of the various basic ingredients in pharmaceutical grades and the same is true for the flavors, tested both for ingestion and inhalation. The sign does not add any additives, sucralose, stevia, koolada, etc.
In terms of labeling, the sacrosanct TPD is fully respected and the consumer fully informed.

Comments on the packaging
The visual and tastes are inherently subjective. So we'll like it or not. However, we can only welcome the initiative to think outside the box and respect this desire to do something different.
As we can also salute the artist, Ti Yee Cha, for offering his art on the labels of the different recipes. The pleasure of the senses is an important value at Le Vaporium, with which we do not joke.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
Ipanema is a lemony gourmand whose recipe bias is to offer a well-developed citrus side based on two categories of lemon. With the traditional yellow lemon we also have citron whose zest is the ingredient generally used in cooking.
The gourmet part is represented by the association of cheesecake and meringue.
If recognizing the citron in this composition is a challenge, we can only note a credible and realistic lemon taste. We can easily guess the acid pulp and a natural juice, fortunately softened by the gourmand of this blend.
Only, the unrepentant gourmet that I am is a little lost by the cheesecake and the meringue. I imagine the North American cheesecake for the sweetness but have more difficulty with the meringue than I can hardly feel.
The potion is of course perfectly made, the dosages and the choice of flavors well controlled. Only the Ipanema is not a real gourmet as it could have been with a much more pastry and candied lemon, opting either for a really creamy side or then frankly meringue.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Relatively versatile, the juice goes well with many atomizers. If I preferred the dripper, the Ipanema will also be satisfied with devices with resistances already made. Its percentage of vegetable glycerin allows it to increase in power, keep in mind that potions are not often intended to vape at crazy powers which only destroy the aromas at best.

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.38 / 5 
My mood ticket on this juice
It is always surprising to see the different interpretations of a similar recipe passed through the hands of various flavorists.
You might as well say it right away. Ipanema is a good juice, very well made and whose different criteria are treated with seriousness and professionalism. Objectively, it obtains a good level of rating, its price is interesting compared to the current offer and the Vaporium does not suffer from any dispute as to the production of its vaping liquids.
Subjectively, I am more nuanced because a little disappointed by the taste orientation taken by Ipanema. I was hoping for a good true gourmand, fine, French style, but my appetite and my gluttony were not satisfied.
Like many factories in the establishment of this recipe, lemon is seen as a citrus fruit and rarely as a baking ingredient. The presence of the cheesecake certainly brings a certain sweetness, but the meringue is far too discreet to show off its taste qualities where a much more candied and greedy fruit would have been the perfect ally for pastry.
Convinced that other palates will not bring the same conclusions I can only encourage you to test for yourself. You will find Ipanema on the Vaporium website in a 30 ml or 60 ml format.
See you soon for new hazy adventures,
Marquolive.
