Comments on the packaging

Mixup Labs is a French manufacturer of liquids based in the South-West and more precisely in the Basque Country in Hendaye.

We find in its catalog many juices with various flavors classified in several ranges among which we find the “Fruitiz” range, the fruity range of the brand currently comprising 12 different juices for the 50 ml versions.

The product is packaged in a transparent flexible plastic bottle with a capacity of 50 ml of liquid, the vial can accommodate up to 60ml of liquid.

The base of the recipe is balanced and therefore displays a PG/VG ratio of 50/50, the nicotine level is obviously zero given the quantity of liquid proposed, this rate can be adjusted to 3 mg/ml by adding directly to the vial a nicotine booster without loss of flavor because the aromas are boosted.

The Fraise Des Bois Cerise liquid is offered at a price of €19,90 and thus ranks among the entry-level liquids.

Comments on the security, legal, health and religious aspects

All the data relating to the legal and safety compliances in force are present on the label of the bottle.

The list of ingredients is visible and details the composition of the liquid indicating the presence of vegetable propylene glycol (PGV).

PGV comes from organic, vegetable and 100% natural raw materials, it is recommended for people who do not support traditional propylene glycol.

Also called MPVG for Mono Propylene Glycol Végétal, it has the same properties as PG of petrochemical origin, restoring flavors well and accentuating the effects of nicotine while remaining softer for the throat.

The origin of the product is well indicated with also information concerning precautions for use and storage.

Comments on the packaging

The design of the label is perfectly in line with the name of the liquid thanks to the illustration of the fruits present in the center of the latter.

All the data on the label is perfectly clear and legible.

The label has a remarkably well-made smooth and shiny finish.

I find it unfortunate that the tip of the bottle does not unscrew for the addition of nicotine. Indeed the latter unclips, it will therefore be necessary to use an appropriate tool to carry out the maneuver which remains however quite simple to perform.

The packaging is correct, well finished and very clean.

Comments on the taste of the juice

The Wild Strawberry Cherry liquid is a fruity-type juice, I really feel the cherry flavors when I open the bottle, the sweet notes of the recipe are also palpable, the strawberry scents are more in the background, the smell is sweet and pleasant.

The fruity flavors of the cherry are those with the most pronounced aromatic power. Indeed, I feel perfectly well in the mouth the taste rendering faithful to the drupe at the same time well perfumed, juicy and sweet.

The flavors of the wild strawberries are much more discreet, I guess them only at the end of the tasting by the additional sweet and sweet notes they bring in the mouth, they are also expressed by subtle wild taste notes.

The homogeneity between the olfactory and gustatory feelings is perfect, the liquid is light and it is not disgusting.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting

The base of the liquid recipe being balanced, it will allow use with most atomizers or pods.

The liquid is very soft and light, so a restricted draw seems ideal to me in order to accentuate the balance of flavors, especially that of the wild strawberry which, with a more open draw, is too diffuse.

My mood ticket on this juice

The Strawberry Des Bois cherry liquid is a fruity type juice where the cherry is omnipresent in the mouth and occupies most of the taste balance of the recipe.

The taste of the first stone fruit of the year is realistic, the cherry is very juicy, fragrant and sweet.

The wild strawberry flavors are unfortunately much more stealthy and only appear at the end of the tasting.

The whole remains soft and light, a good fruity liquid where the wild strawberry deserved to be a little more pronounced for my taste!
