:eek: lol thread got broke?? :p

Donald, I wish you the best and let me know if my starting points was about right.. for Study in Scarlotte..

for the rest.. you need to describe what it is you are tasting..
on the inhale, how the mouth feel is as well as the exhale..

once you can do that, it might help others out to help you better.. :)

The Study in Scarlet sounds like maybe a strawberry ripe with some type of milk or cream and a bit of menthol. Sounds good, may tinker with it.

I'm leaning towards spearmint, but I know I've seen a website with a "sweet mint" or "butter mint" flavoring, just can't remember which one.

There's a "cool mint" on the Bull City site. That sounded good too.

its not a peppermint,im kinda thinking spearmint
Inawera has a nice spearmint. The German Flavors Vanilla Spearmint smells just like one of those creamy after dinner butter mints. Really nice smell but I haven't mixed it yet so I don't know the taste. I do favor the GF Strawberry over others, but they've been weird for me.

The other one was a creamy tropical fruit thingie? I have to go with Inw again, Exotic. It's excellent but I haven't added anything to it.

this is what i suggested when @Donald Bickers talked with me..

shimmer will be hard, never had either so what ever help i can give.. lol

the other one,Study in Scarlet: tastes like fresh berries and sweet mint; light and refreshing.

i'd pick a blend of peppermint and wintergreen, like:

.75% peppermint
.25% wintergreen

fresh berries..

unless you can pick them all out..
anything berry wise.. keep the percents low..
make sure to use .25% real lemon juice to make it all pop..
sometimes you might want to add a tiny bit of white vinegar too..

other than that.. bout all the help i can give..
