Comments on the packaging

With the first southerly winds blowing up particles of sand from the desert, arrived the last four of Alfaliquid's Dark Story range. The range is growing, much to the enthusiasm of fans and is already emerging as a complete premium section, which does not avoid any taste category.

The conditioning is usual. A black glass bottle with a different label according to the reference and above all, a textbook case in the transparency of information. The nicotine level, the PG / VG ratio, the full list of ingredients should help you make your choice with the best knowledge of the product. You will thus be able to notice that the vegetable glycerin and the alcohol contained in this juice are of organic origin.

Here, nothing is hidden. Everything appears in broad daylight. Well done !

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 4.6 5 out of stars

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

The same goes for the safety notices and compliance with European legislation. It is very clean and in the image of the manufacturer who very quickly forged a reputation for seriousness in the manufacture and distribution of its products.

Note, for those who have tolerance problems with this substance, the presence of alcohol, which may also disqualify practicing Muslims. In general, adding alcohol has several effects on an e-liquid. First in terms of conservation but also for the length in the mouth or even the precision of certain blends.

Inhaling alcohol does not seem dangerous, especially in such small proportions, but it is our role to indicate to people that it would bother.

Comments on the packaging

Black bottle, label in gray-bluish and blood red tones, the aesthetic has not been overlooked. A feminine face, on a marbled background, lets burst purpurine lips highlighted by the name of the liquid: Ruby Skin. We are well in the theme of the name and this statufied facies but so alive invites us to tasting and discovery.

It's very pretty and full of mystery, enough to make your mouth water and throw yourself on the cork.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

Strange and bewitching are the two qualifiers that seem to me best to stick to Ruby Skin. And that mystery lies in the quality of an iron-clad recipe for an astonishing blend of fruits.

We immediately smell a Sicilian orange mixed with a lemon which gives it a slight increase in acidity. Here lies the top note of the liquid, the most obvious. It's fresh, full of life and very realistic. Pleasure.

But very quickly a more gourmet aspect emerges, brought by a juicy strawberry which gives the assembly a nice thickness. Strawberries are rather sweet and sweet, which significantly dampens the acidity of citrus fruits.

A cloud of fresh air, which I attribute to the presence of spearmint, sets in permanently but without violence. We are not here in a subzeroic liquid but rather in an elegant fruit salad, between acid and sugar, which sometimes offers itself the luxury of a dash of anise that crosses the mouth after a few taffs.

The blend works wonderfully and represents the archetype of the liquid one might want for summer days. It's done to perfection, very balanced, long in the mouth and totally realistic.

My mood ticket on this juice

A nice surprise that leaves a taste of “come back” to Ruby Skin. 

Indeed, it is really the type of liquid that we like to vape in this season. Light but full in flavor. Sweet but fresh enough not to be boring. A pretty composition that deserves more than just a glance. On the contrary, it can be tamed with great ease and the quality of the aromas used allows a very precise definition of what is in the mouth.

A big bravo, I who am not a fan of fruits in the vape, I found here a very pleasant companion!
