Comments on the packaging

In almost 5 years spent at the Vapelier, I have never forgotten a single review. The forced confinement of this early spring will at least have allowed me to put my affairs in order and repair this passage by the wayside.

The VDLV / Cirkus brand being one of our “historical” players, I did not want this evaluation to end in the basket, preferring largely to deliver this preamble to you.

Let's put the context back. The 1st Vapexpo of Paris Villepinte has just ended, we are in 2018 ...

You are always about to evaluate a new reference from VDLV / Cirkus with unfailing interest.
Presented at the last Vapexpo in Paris Villepinte, the Bordelais among other innovations, health research and nicotine manufacturing presented their last two references: Cacahuète Crunchy and Vertigo. It is to the latter that we will devote this evaluation.

From the Classic Wanted range, reserved for gourmet “tobaccos”, our potion is packaged in a 10ml glass flask fitted with a pipette of the same material (unlike my illustrative images corresponding to the test bottles) and the recipe is mounted on a basis of 50/50 PG / VG.

A full range of nicotine values ​​is available to satisfy the widest range of consumers. We thus find the 3, 6, 12 & 16 mg / ml in addition to the reference devoid of addictive substance.

The price is in the mid-range category to settle around € 6,50 per 10 ml.

  • Presence of child safety on the cap: Yes
  • Presence of clear pictograms on the label: Yes
  • Presence of relief marking for the visually impaired on the label: Yes

  • Presence of alcohol: Yes. Be careful if you are sensitive to this substance
  • Presence of distilled water: No

  • HALAL compliance: Do not know
  • Indication of the name of the laboratory producing the juice: Yes
  • Presence of the contacts necessary to reach a consumer service on the label: Yes
  • Presence on the label of a batch number: Yes

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 subject has always been the major concern of the brand and the LFEL laboratory. Not only at the cutting edge, the company devotes a great deal of resources in research and development to make vaping even safer.

Remember, moreover, that VDLV / Cirkus are the only ones to offer Made In France vaping nicotine when this product was almost exclusively imported until then.

Comments on the packaging

Professional, the production does not suffer from any criticism. The color recalls the taste category of the juice and as any notion of incentive is absent, the legislation is fully respected.

Note the glass vial * that personally, at this price level, I consider appropriate. I know that some people don't like it, but for others, it will be welcome.

 

* My illustration images correspond to the test vials

Vapelier's note on the sensory experience: 3.75/5 3.8 5 out of stars

Comments on the taste of the juice

The bet is daring and at least has the merit of thinking outside the box.

The goal of Vertigo is to offer us a delicious blond and vanilla tobacco accompanied by Amaretto. For those who don't know, Amaretto is a sweet liqueur made from bitter almonds with a rather particular taste.

The flavorists are not mistaken, the potion is unusual. From there to saying that it will win the support of the greatest number, there is a step that I will not take.

The recipe is perfectly done but the result is in my opinion very divisive. Indeed, on a tobacco base with moderate strength and power is added the famous liqueur of Italian origin. The result is a rather harsh recipe whose vanilla tries as much as possible to calm the ardor.

The first puff surprises and destabilizes but if the sensation tames our taste buds as and when the milliliters are locked, there remains this bitter almond taste which must imperatively correspond to your appetites otherwise the judgment will be final.

Tasting recommendations

  • Recommended power for optimal taste: 20W
  • Type of vapor obtained at this power: Dense
  • Hit type obtained at this power: Medium
  • Atomizer used for the review: Dripper Maze, Melo 4 & PockeX
  • Value of the resistance of the atomizer in question: 0.6Ω
  • Materials used with the atomizer: Kanthal, Stainless steel, Cotton

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The vape on a dripper allows you to feel each aroma with more precision. In the case of Vertigo, this boosts the Amaretto terribly to the point of becoming indigestible.

Unless you are a fan of bitter almonds, I suggest a less efficient material for a smoother result.

Recommended Moments

  • Recommended times of the day: End of lunch / dinner with a digestif, All afternoon during everyone's activities, Early evening to relax with a drink, End of the evening with or without herbal tea, At night for the insomniacs
  • Can this juice be recommended as an All Day Vape: No

Overall average (excluding packaging) of the Vapelier for this juice: 4.04 / 5 4 5 out of stars

My mood ticket on this juice

Marked by my taste judgment, the rating is necessarily impacted. Nevertheless, if the proposal is obviously to be welcomed, a bitter juice dedicated to Amaretto is in essence a splitting juice.

Finding pep and roughness in a fruity potion can be legitimate. In a “tobacco”, if the character does not derive from the variety of Nicot grass, it is more complicated. The flavorists have tried to channel this bitterness, but a light tobacco and a vanilla which struggles to soften the whole offer us a very distinctive and clearly oriented reference.

As usual, I can only encourage you to form your opinion. The Vertigo, like the entire Classic Wanted range, benefits from the greatest care in its making; the company VDLV / Cirkus is an indisputable pledge of seriousness in the art of hexagonal vaping.

See you soon for new hazy adventures,

Marquolive.

About the Author

Follower of the tobacco vape and rather "tight" I do not balk in front of good greedy clouders. I love flavor-oriented drippers but am very curious about the evolutions of our common passion for personal vaporizers. Good reasons to make my modest contribution here, no?
