Comments on the packaging
We continue our exploration of the Flavor Power range dedicated to first-time vapers by browsing the “Les Fruity” range of the brand which, as its name suggests, concerns… uh, well, the fruity ones !!!! Until then, everyone can follow, do not pick up on the way, it will take off! 😉
Let's go to a destination across the Atlantic since it is the Smoothie that will come under the microscope. In advance, we already know what we will find in the liquid since it has the elegance of being really called: SMOOTHIE - Strawberry Apple Banana. Well, that avoids searching even if that fanned the mystery a little. However and with your agreement, I will give it for this review its diminutive, the Smoothie. It will take less time to write and less indigestible to read!
Available in 0, 6, 12 and 18 mg / ml nicotine to sweep wide for beginners, the Smoothie is built on an 80/20 basis of PG / VG ratio, effective for the target audience. The dropper tip is very thin and will facilitate your refills.
The price, noted on the various sites where I was able to find it, is around an average of € 4.90, which corresponds well to the category.

Vapelier's note regarding the respect of various conformities (except religious): 4.63 / 5 
Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects
Nothing to declare to US customs! Not even a pie chart hidden in the backpack!
The juice is fully compliant and transparently obeys the legislation and the need to inform the consumer. All the regulatory logos are there, as well as the legal notices. By lifting the repositionable label, we discover the mandatory instructions and all possible warnings. However, one of great importance is missing: “BE CAREFUL, vaping can make you quit smoking.”
Flavor Power did not skimp or quibble, everything is in perfect compliance.
I just note a slight downside. The nicotine level, the BBD, the batch number and the nicotine level estimated by puff are information added after printing. This results in poorer resistance of the ink to handling and to liquid drips. It would be good, in my humble opinion, to rectify that before a zealous and nitpicking inspector notices it.
Appreciation of the packaging
- Does the graphic design of the label and the product name agree ?: Yes
- Global correspondence of the packaging with the product name: Yes
- The packaging effort made is in accordance with the price category: No
Vapelier's note regarding packaging with regard to juice category: 3.33 / 5 
Comments on the packaging
Although more visually pleasing than its friend in the 50/50 range, the packaging suffers from the accumulation of mandatory information. It's a shame because it takes away the personality of the brand and the product. I bet that a longer study in this direction could remedy this state of affairs and deliver us a visually more attractive and therefore more attractive bottle, stuck among many others on the stall of a shop.

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 4.38/5 
Comments on the taste of the juice
Now that the mystery is cleared, how am I going to be able to shine and flaunt my taste insight? Ah, I am told by management that the ankle-swelling sequence is over, let's go to the tasting:
We find in fact in the mouth the three fruits: apple, banana and strawberry. The three flavors are balanced and none of them really emerge and, in any case, not to the detriment of others. A good point.
The banana brings its particular smell and ensures the hold in the mouth. The strawberry is sweet but present, especially at the start of the puff. The apple brings its slightly tart side and energizes the mixture. It is objectively successful.
But that's without counting on the milky creaminess which supports the whole and which brings precisely the Smoothie aspect claimed by the surname. A sensation that lasts quite a long time in the mouth and is reminiscent of flavored condensed milk from a famous Swiss brand. Nothing to say, everything is there and it's nice to vape.
A purely subjective comment: The apple is too much for me. Even if I understand its role in strengthening the assembly, I admit that sometimes it parasitizes the sweetness of other fruits a bit and I would have liked to be satisfied with the aromas of banana and strawberry which already seem to me to be very consistent and rich in taste. But this is an eminently personal opinion that does not obscure the success of the liquid in balancing its recipe.
Tasting recommendations

- Type of steam obtained at this power: Normal

- 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
Like the rest of the Flavor Power juices so far, the aromatic power is good. Which makes it easy to feed the atomizer you want, in tight or air flow. In view of the low viscosity of the liquid, accentuated by the addition of milli-Q water, I recommend a Nautilus X type clearomizer for this type of vape.
The ideal temperature is warm / cold to keep the fruit and the milkiness in balance. Tested in a dripper, it also works at higher power and on low resistance but it is definitely in a clearomizer, at a power between 10 and 15W, that this juice will make its nest.

My mood ticket on this juice
A successful fruit juice that flirts with greediness, we will not be choosy.
Even though I was able to express reservations about the recipe itself, the Smoothie does not disappoint. It is soft, smooth and balanced. It will delight beginners and amateurs of the genre because it keeps its promise down to the comma, without pretension or false modesty.
A good juice well done.
