Comments on the packaging
Tagada tsoin tsoin !!! With the Black Cirkus range, VDLV revisits the great circus classics! Bearded woman, man-cannon and acrobat, we are talking here about the track with the stars of dad or even of grandpa with a mixture of artists and fairground “attractions” as we do not see any more today. .
We are therefore going to peel together the rags of Monsieur Muscle, the Hercules on duty, in a 20s style where the waist size had to be identical to the chest size and who lifted dumbbells in the shape of cannonballs.
The packaging of the range leaves nothing to chance. As usual at VDLV, we don't mess with details and that's what makes the difference, both cosmetically and tastefully. Here, all the information is brought together in a big trumpet parade and all the musicians are present to reassure the consumer at the time of his choice. The score is beautiful and the zicos play well. It's perfect. Point.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
And hop, while the juggler passes seven pins at the same time, our Mr. Muscle lifts a bench of thirty spectators with one hand! The crowd applauds wildly !!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you good people but don't be surprised, the VDLV circus is used to putting on a good show.
And indeed, nothing to report in terms of security, so crucial at these times when attacks are raining on the vapors like a summer day in Cherbourg. Everything is there, DLUO, batch number, conformities this and security that… VDLV is in the game and anticipates many problems by displaying a transparency which does honor to the profession. A single watchword: May the show continue!

Comments on the packaging
Deep black glass bottle, magnificent label representing the attraction in action, using shades of black and gray in the background and a blood red to enhance the important elements. We are halfway between a timeless elegance and vintage imagery of the early twentieth. It's steampunk / circus, made with care and particularly successful. Congratulations to the design manager who worked well to offer us such an endearing bottle.
I particularly like the concept of the range, which can be used by circus artists of yesteryear, being sensitive to the imagery of the time. Without any problem one of the best thought-out packaging that I have had the opportunity to test.

Comments on the taste of the juice
The first item that jumps to your tonsils when you take a first puff is the strawberry. A sweet strawberry, rather candy, pleasantly sweet. But that would be reducing Monsieur Muscle to a banal expression because it is much more complex than that.
A touch of subtly vanilla cream creeps into my palate like a politician in a ditch: smoothly and without being noticed. And the strawberry immediately becomes more seductive and mysterious. The whole is greedy at will, especially with regard to the proportion PG / VG (60/40).
The aromas are sufficiently discreet so as not to be caricatured but are still present to emphasize the greediness of the whole. The recipe is successful and the juice works in the vape by releasing pretty fragrant and pleasant clouds of vapor.
While looking on the site, I note the presence of a biscuit touch which had escaped me during the test day. I had a little trouble but by pushing the power a little, we have indeed, well hidden under the assembly, a shortbread base which gives off a biscuit scent from time to time. This phenomenon is furtive and one could regret that this interesting flavor is not further pushed into the mixture.
But, hay for idle considerations, Mr. Loyal is on the track and confirms what we thought: Mr. Muscle, mean as he looks, is a cream ...

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
A little pastel, Monsieur Muscle is better revealed by increasing the power. It is not afraid of heat even if a lukewarm vapor will be better able to make it express its palette of flavors. Pleasant in an ato tank, it is unstoppable in a slightly airy dripper for an instant gourmet and light vape.

My mood ticket on this juice
A juice very pleasant to vip on moments of pure pleasure gourmand.
The recipe gives the impression of melting in the mouth like a light strawberry vanilla mousse. It's really good and I was surprised to let myself be caught up in the game of this fairground sweetness, half dessert, half confectionery, delicate enough to satisfy the finest palates and tasty enough to seduce the big mouths.
VDLV once again confirms its mastery of vaping cooking and is establishing itself more and more as a major player on the French scene by declining its philosophy in very different categories and by succeeding on all fronts.
A big ola is needed and the wooden stands tremble under the weight of a crowd moved by the “soft heart” of the brute on the track!
