Comments on the packaging

And here we are again for an exploration in the famous cabinet of Curiosities of Fuu. Between fetuses and heads reduced in jars of formalin, one finds, under a thick mass of dust, some precious vials bearing the names of insects. And as far as we are concerned today, it is the Volucella that entomologists versed in dipterology know well. Me, poor mortal, I do like you, I type on Wikipedia and above all, I do not forget to vape because after all, that's what is important!

The packaging, naturally obeying the logic of the range, is pleasant, professional and above all includes all the information necessary for informing consumers. I really would have liked to complain that the range is only available in 15ml and not in 30ml but I am silent because, in May 2016, we will feel happy if we still find in 10ml. 2016 will be a bad year for vaping, everyone knows today. And it's such a shame for all the French vaping industry which is one of the most efficient in the world. But hey, for once we were good in one area, it is still at the level of the state that we are cutting our legs. The French genius must have died with Victor Hugo ...

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

Clear, it's clear, totally clear. A perfection in the conformity worthy of the manufacturer and his known commitment to the cause of French e-liquids. Moreover, the entire range has been reworked in order to eliminate potential dangerous molecules. It loses a little in smoothness but it gains in healthiness and in precision of aromas. For me, it is very beneficial!

In addition to the batch number, an optimal use-by date is added. I take this opportunity to specify that after this date which is commonly called DLUO, e-liquids remain fit for consumption if they have been stored away from light. They gradually lose their nicotine concentration, then their aromatic concentration may fade but they do not present a risk to health.

So, an almost perfect score for this chapter, slightly lowered because the juice contains water. This presents no problem, neither harmfulness, nor any premature deterioration. The addition of ultra-pure water is practiced for the fluidization of an e-liquid and allow it to be vaporized in a maximum of device. If inhaling steam was dangerous, our beloved Minister of Health would have long since closed steam rooms and other saunas. But we are not losing anything by waiting, it will come to his mind to close them in 2017 because they will continue to propagate “the gesture of vaping” among young audiences since we inhale and exhale vapor in this type of place. Until we decide to close the bathrooms and ban hot water….

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

Comments on the packaging

The packaging starts off well with a very dark cobalt blue glass bottle that provides UV protection conducive to the preservation of your juice. And the packaging also ends well by declining the “entomological” concept of the range. I really like this typical “natural science” aspect which reminds me of the visit to Jean Rostand's laboratory in Cambo. A hint of alchemy, a few words in Latin, a white apothecary label, a stylized drawing of the Diptera in question and we have a pretty packaging, unusual and nice.

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

Comments on the taste of the juice

This liquid fits perfectly into this range which aims to be pastry.

We have indeed the attack of a controlled fruit that skilfully mixes a slight acidity and a fuller and juicier appearance. I admit that I would not have found the famous yellow plum that the label mentions if I had not read it before because it is a rather rare fruit in the vape. So now I can smell this plum which seems to me quite close to a golden claude with the sweet side that outweighs the acidity.

Behind, we feel the smooth support of vanilla cream that sometimes overflows a little on the fruit, especially after several tafs, but without hiding it.

This new recipe is in my opinion sharper than the first and the aromas are easily detached from each other. A real good juice!

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

This is a cushy e-liquid to vape because too much power and too much heat have the effect of vampirizing the plum and affecting the accuracy of the whole. Also choose a precise atomizer in flavor to appreciate the nuances. On the other hand, its viscosity makes it compatible with approximately all evaporation devices.

My mood ticket on this juice

My faith, when a juice is good, that it is precise in its flavor, that it is nicely bottled and that, moreover, it is totally in line with the most basic safety rules, the columnist does what he has to. do: he closes it.

Fuu has made a nice e-liquid with Volucella, which “gourmets” and “fruity people” can happily argue about. The presence of plum is rare enough in an e-liquid to be tempting, and the mixture with the custard is not incongruous, far from it. It is somewhat reminiscent of the filling of a plum tart, soberly vanilla and smooth with fruit juice and a light cream. It succeeded.

I close it.
