Well HIC here is my thoughts on Dark Vapure and Perique. Bellow is review on both from FA's site. In red. Although I had this information, (plus more on all their flavors) I did not read this until this morning when I was done testing the two. I did not want to be influenced in anyway before I tested the two.
Dark Vapure
This is certainly one of my favourite flavours and carries the taste of strong, dark tobacco that is long-lasting and sharp with dark cocoa nuances. I mix this in equal parts with Perique for an extremely seductive combination.
Perique
Powerful Perique is the strongest and darkest of the Tobak range with a harsh edginess and probably the most similar to real cigarette smoke. Braves can vape it on its own, but it can be used to impart strong notes to aromatic tobacco flavour, a tough guy for tough vapers. When I feel like experiencing the ultimate in indulgence, I vape a mix of Perique and Dark Vapure, it is just about too good for words!
I like both of them. Both of these were mixed @ 2% in a 70/30 18mg base. The first few vapes of Dark Vapure hit me for a loop. Boy was it strong, not toooo bad but strong. It tasted to me just like a real strong cig and a little like an ash tray. After about 1/2 hour I had to put it down. But the next morning I tried it again and began to really like it. As a stand alone I don't think I would vape this all day but mixed with something to smooth it out just a bit may work for me. They said above: it is long lasting: (that is for sure. the taste will hang in your mouth a while) and Sharp: (OH it is sharp!!) With dark cocoa nuances: (That I did not get)
Now Perique I did not find it to be as strong as Dark Vapure. It is harsh as they say but but in a good way at least for me. This also would not be a straight up all day vape for me with out something to smooth it out.
Now in both of their descriptions they do not mention floral undertones. I get floral undertones in both of them. Not too strong but it's there. I find both to be close to the real cig that I was use to. (Export A and Players both Canadian cigs). But if you were a light American cig smoker I could see why you would not like these 2. For anyone that was a heavy smoker and love strong tobacco vapes and is into DIY I would suggest to give these 2 a try.
And in closing I let my wife try the Dark Vapure. She said it was not to bad?? I expected her to puke this one up. Now my wife hates everything but her store bought ejuice. I think she even hates me LOL. She is very picky!
