Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.13 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Flavor Art bottles are equipped with an original security system and opening of the cap.
The seal of tamper is ensured by a breakable tongue, guaranteeing sure that the vial has never been opened.
Once freed from this step, it is by pressure on the sides, at the top of the stopper that you will intervene, for the opening and the refueling of your atomizers.
While I admit that the system is clever, I nonetheless remain cautious about its effectiveness under skilful childish manipulation. Personally, I am not convinced, but the whole nevertheless corresponds to the requirements of the ISO 8317 standard.
Regarding regulatory information. Everything is indicated as text but impossible to read without a magnifying glass. The whole thing lacks clarity and seems to have been written there, because it is mandatory ... in this regard, I note the absence of 2 regulatory pictograms: -18 and not recommended for pregnant women
Note, however, the effort of the brand which offers us alcohol-free juices and other prohibited or undesirable substances. A DLUO and a batch number, as well as the coordinates of the place of manufacture and those of distribution.
Appreciation of the packaging

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 4.17 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
Discreet and relatively "go anywhere", the packaging does not show a great imagination. Despite restrictive regulations, we are now used to better. Apart from the visual dedicated to the name of the recipe, the whole thing lacks clarity and “relief” in my opinion.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 3.75/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
On the nose and the vape, this Metaphor develops a presence slightly superior to other pre-tested brand references.
I feel a pastry presence with a hint of slight bitterness.
The promise of crunchy cake, vanilla, lemon and cream, it seems pretty normal.
The taste is not bad but once again, the aromatic power and the percentage of aromas are so low that it is difficult to find the declination announced with precision.
I will explain in the following chapter the method to learn more about the Metaphor but know that it is still possible to perceive flavors more or less in accordance with the manufacturer's announcement.
Tasting recommendations
- Recommended power for optimal taste: 50 W
- Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal (type T2)
- Hit type obtained at this power: Medium
- Atomizer used for the review: Dripper Zénith & Bellus RBA
- Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.5Ω
- Materials used with the atomizer: Kanthal, Fiber Freaks Cotton Blend
Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Scared by my previous tastings of Flavor Art, I decided to directly “abuse” this recipe.
Dripper, clapton wire resistance at 0.50Ω and 50W. Under these conditions and immediately after having soaked the Fiber Freaks well, I get a result. Insufficiently potent, but seeming to more or less correspond to the list of ingredients.
On the other hand on ato tank, it takes a damn sharpened palace to find the same feeling.
In this case, which seems to me more suited to these products, I consider the result far too modest to satisfy first-time vapers.
And again, I opted for a device known for its restitution of flavors, not corresponding to the target clientele.
Out of professional conscience I also tried on a Tron S clearomiser with proprietary Ni200 coils… but here, I am saving you my comments out of pure decency and ethical respect…

My mood ticket on this juice
I am really sorry for Flavor Art, knowing the work necessary for the design / production of e-liquids.
I am just as much for Absotech, distributor of the brand for France, who sent us the different Italian ranges.
I recognize everyone's efforts to offer juices that meet standards, made in the rules of the art and especially in accordance with French law.
I admit, that the taste aspect is a purely objective notion and that my palate, my taste buds, do not have the boldness of universality.
Only, my commitment to the Vapelier is guided only by the desire for honesty in the information described. An assiduous reader of this media before becoming a modest contributor, I imagine and above all I remember what information I came to seek there.
The offer and description on the composition of this Metaphor was once again enticing. In a specific configuration, it is possible to see all the work of the flavorists. Only, again, a cruel percentage of aromas is missing ...
I imagine the Flavor Art products intended for newcomers to the vaping industry. But with the material that is recommended to them, the result is far too insufficient ...
See you soon for new hazy adventures,
