Comments on the packaging

Coming from the Fraîcheur range of Flavor Power, the manufacturer Auvergnat, I present the Mint X-Trem which promises us a trip on the ice floes. Snowshoes and down jackets are not provided but for the decor, it is successful.

Presented in a standard 10ml plastic bottle equipped with a fine dropper ideal for supplying your steam machines, Mint X-Trem is available in 0, 6, 12 and 18mg / ml of nicotine and is assembled on a base having a PG / VG ratio of 80/20, which is suitable for novice vapers who are the core target of this product. The task is noble, we need e-liquids that allow access to the vape of all our smoking friends.

Offered at prices ranging, depending on the distributors, between € 4.90 and € 5.50, the average price observed is € 5.10, which classifies this product in the entry-level and therefore confirms it in its laudable goal of juice for first-time users. vapers.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.25 / 5 4.3 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The conformity of the bottle is exemplary. We are doing a very good job of adapting to the latest regulations. Nothing has been forgotten by the manufacturer, anxious to stay within the narrow confines of the law.

Various and varied logos, health warnings, mandatory information and even the instructions that you discover by removing the repositionable label constitute a certain ideal in terms of response to the pressure exerted on the vaping products by the public authorities.

A slight regret, undoubtedly repairable: some important information has been overprinted on top of the label with ink that does not hold. Erasure is therefore to be feared after a slight sag or intense handling. On this unopened copy, the lot number is already a distant memory, although we can clearly see that it was originally written. 

The liquid contains water, normal for a polar e-liquid but also alcohol, which may disturb people who are intolerant to this element or who practice a religion that prohibits it.

Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 3.33 / 5 3.3 5 out of stars

Comments on the packaging

Aesthetics suffered from the overflow of information present on the bottle. The product has lost its personality and its appeal. Also, it becomes difficult, despite the presence of the nice logo, to attribute its image to Flavor Power rather than a third-party manufacturer.

A reorganization of information coupled with design work, no doubt better able to preserve these important aspects, seems to me desirable in the interest of the brand, even if the packaging as is is always more successful than that of the 50 range. / 50.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

This is brutal. 

Obviously, with such a name, we do not expect a sweet caramel violet but we must admit that the taste surprise is still great. However, the liquid is not lying and totally fulfills its promise.

We therefore have in the mouth a wild mint, which despite everything retains the taste of the homonymous plant and an immense load of freshness caused both, in my opinion, by menthol with its specific localized cooling in the mouth but also by a refreshing agent. , like WS-3, which affirms its presence by a descent of the fresh effect in the airways.

The shock is intense and is coupled with an overpowering hit low in the throat. On my dripper, I almost lost all my teeth! 

A very credible e-liquid in the category and which above all concerns lovers of pure and hard freshness. For others, to paraphrase Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings: ”Flee, you fools!”

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 12 W
  • Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal (type T2)
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Powerful
  • Atomizer used for the review: Narda, Taifun GT3, Nautilus X
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.8
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Stainless steel, Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

Avoid drippers or reconstructables likely to extrapolate the freshness of this liquid already at the top at this level. Favor the use of a cushy clearomizer, around 12 to 14W on a resistance between 1.5 and 1.8Ω.

The vapor remains very moderate, the PG / VG ratio obliges and the temperature imposes itself ... Be careful not to use PMMA containers but a clearomiser equipped with a pyrex tank if you want to keep your equipment intact .

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: All afternoon during everyone's activities
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: No

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.13 / 5 4.1 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

With the Mint X-Trem, we are clearly on an e-liquid that takes its name. Overpowering, with a colossal hit and a radical freshness, it will be easily adopted by beginners fans of the genre.

Despite all this unleashing of the elements and the blizzard that follows, we still feel the taste of the plant, a sign that the recipe is balanced, even in its excess. A good liquid therefore, not recommended for sensitive souls and palates.
