Some use a combination of different things to create many layers.
(Idea being to use many different ones but in smaller amounts IMO).

EM (or Cotton Candy) 0.5-1%
Sucralose (has diet pop aftertaste if too much is used)
Stevia (has more earthy taste if too much is used)
FA Marshmallow (for some sweetness and body/fluff)
TFA Brown Sugar
FA Jamaican Rum
Butter (or 0.5% FA Coconut)
Sweet Cream (can give the impression of sweetness)
Couple other additives I can't recall ATM.
Even VG has a sweet taste.

Keep in mind the "natural" sweets we are used to eating, and crave so much, don't work for vaping so good.
Hence the reason why artificial sweeteners are mostly used in e-juice, but can also be hard on coils if overly used.
Fructose, as some of the FW flavors are using, taste quite good but are coil killers and not so safe to vape IMO.
Which is why natural fruit sweetness (Fructose) is so hard to replicate using artificial sweeteners.

Many flavors already have some of these things "built in".

ty so much for this well explained info.

im playing at 5% sucralose and 1% em at the moment . last week i did a 5ml sucralose on a 30ml bottle mix test (soo 5ml + 30% pg 70% vg mix) and i felt like the flavor disappear fast on the exhale. is the amount of sucralose the reason for it?

Most likely yes to the sweetener, and EM can cause some fading also IMO.
I'd try 0.5-1% sweetener, and the same for EM if used.
But it may also depend on the flavor/s and brand/s being used.
