Cheap Fruity Fresh e-liquids

An e-liquid (or electronic cigarette liquid) is the product that produces vapour when heated by an e-cigarette coil. Unlike traditional cigarettes, there is no combustion. E-liquid contains a base of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine, flavourings and, optionally, nicotine. It determines the flavour, throat hit, vapour production and overall vaping experience.

An e-liquid generally contains four components:

• propylene glycol (PG), which carries the flavourings, strengthens the throat hit and gives a sensation similar to smoking a cigarette;
• vegetable glycerine (VG), which produces the vapour and determines how dense the clouds are;
• flavourings, which provide the taste (fruit, mint, classic tobacco, dessert flavours, ice…);
• nicotine, which is optional and helps vapers who are quitting smoking manage cravings.

Some formulas also use alternative plant-based bases (Végétol) for a smoother vape.

An e-liquid with nicotine is intended for vapers who want to replace conventional cigarettes. Nicotine helps provide a sense of satisfaction and reduces cravings. Nicotine-free e-liquids are used either towards the end of quitting or simply for the enjoyment of vaping, although vaping is not recommended if you do not smoke. Choosing the right nicotine strength is essential to avoid an unpleasant experience, such as irritation or cravings. The strength you need depends on how many cigarettes you used to smoke. A light smoker will not have the same needs as a heavy smoker. Too little nicotine can lead to frustration and relapse, while too much can cause throat discomfort. The aim is to find a balance between throat hit, satisfaction and vaping comfort, adjusting the strength gradually if necessary. We generally recommend a low strength of 0, 3 or 6 mg/ml for light or occasional smokers (fewer than 7 cigarettes a day), and a high strength of 20 mg/ml nicotine salt for heavy smokers (one pack of cigarettes or more). You can adjust this strength to suit your e-cigarette and the way you vape.

Nicotine salt is a more stable form of nicotine that is smoother to inhale. It is absorbed quickly and gives a less harsh throat hit, even at high strengths. Nicotine salt e-liquids are particularly suited to new vapers, former heavy smokers and low-power MTL kits. They come in different strengths. The best-known and most effective is 20 mg/ml, which is well suited to heavy smokers. A strength of 10 mg/ml may also suit a regular or occasional smoker.

A nicotine booster is a bottle of concentrated nicotine designed to be added to a larger bottle of e-liquid. It lets you adjust the final nicotine strength according to how much you add. Flexible and economical, this option lets you boost your large-format e-liquid to 3 or 6 mg/ml of nicotine. For a 50 ml e-liquid, adding one nicotine booster gives you 3 mg/ml; two boosters bring it to 6 mg/ml.

The ratio of propylene glycol to vegetable glycerine has a significant effect on the vaping experience.

• An e-liquid high in propylene glycol, or PG (70/30, 80/20), delivers a stronger throat hit, more distinct flavours and a discreet vape. The e-liquid is thin and should only be used with MTL devices that have a tight draw to prevent leaks.
• An e-liquid high in vegetable glycerine, or VG (30/70), produces more vapour and bigger clouds, with a smoother, sweeter feel. This thicker e-liquid is suitable for sub-ohm or shisha-style e-cigarettes that produce large vapour clouds at high power.

Your choice therefore depends on the power and compatibility of your e-cigarette. If in doubt, the most common ratio is 50/50 PG/VG. Balanced and versatile, it can be used with MTL, RDL and lower-power DTL e-cigarettes (at around 15 to 40 watts).

Vegetable-based or Végétol e-liquids replace traditional propylene glycol. They are often gentler on the throat, better tolerated by some vapers who are sensitive to PG, and provide a smoother vape without compromising on flavour. However, they should be used for MTL vaping at a low power setting (minimum 30 watts) to avoid leaks and preserve product quality.

Yes, CBD e-liquids are designed for vaping and generally contain no nicotine. They offer a different experience focused on relaxation, without an addictive effect. Use them at a moderate power setting to preserve product quality. An MTL e-cigarette with a tight draw is preferable.

E-liquids are considered a much healthier alternative to smoking tobacco. They are made from ingredients certified as posing no health risks, unlike the 7,000 harmful substances in traditional cigarettes. Nevertheless, to choose an e-liquid that is safe to use, take a few precautions: buy from a recognised retailer such as Le Vapoteur Discount, and check its ingredients and origin, favouring reputable brands whose products are tested.

An e-liquid made in France meets strict requirements and European directives on traceability, testing and safety. As a mark of quality and transparency for consumers, French and European brands generally have their own laboratories to develop their e-liquid formulas and must have those formulas assessed by an independent laboratory before bringing them to market. These steps help ensure that e-liquids are safe for vapers. French and European quality standards prohibit undesirable substances and provide a safer framework for vaping.

To keep your e-liquid for as long as possible and preserve its quality, flavour and colour, store it in its original bottle, ideally away from light, heat and air. Despite these precautions, it may turn slightly brown. This colour is caused by nicotine oxidation and may also depend on the flavouring used in the e-liquid; it is harmless, and the e-liquid remains suitable for use. If you are not using your device, we generally recommend not leaving the same e-liquid in your clearomiser or pod cartridge for more than five days, to avoid leaks and excessive oxidation.

The DLUO or DDM is an indicative best-before date. Once an e-liquid passes this date, it may lose some of its flavour and change in appearance, including its colour and consistency. A newly manufactured e-liquid will have a best-before period of around two years. Even after this date, the e-liquid remains suitable for vaping and will not be harmful to health.
