On my amazon app all mf is sold by good earth store.
It definitely leans towards candy. But itās got a lot of punch and pop. I donāt really go higher than 2% with it.
I think SSA Sweet leans a little more natural, but I donāt have that one so Iām no good for a comparison
I checked again and saw Brand: Good Earth Beauty and then Brand: Medicine Flower. Maybe because it was late at night I mistook it for a shop because GEB has a shop. Iām sorry if I mislead you but I could swear I saw a shop. Maybe I was dreaming by then, lol.
Mikeās answer is on the money. DW is more candied and thicker. SW leans more toward natural. Not sure if the watermelon element in both aromas is the same. Theyāre both good, and they both have their place in mixes. One note to add, they work wonderfully together. I like 2.5 DW and 2 SW. Add some super sweet and it creates a total watermelon syrup vibe.
@Plunderdrum what is the flavor profile of Exotic? There arenāt any notes on it. And, tbh, I havenāt seen it.
Not to butt in, but I noticed it on Bull City Flavors.
Hereās the description:
Exotic Flavor blends juicy pineapple with mango and apricot sweetness, enhanced by orange and kiwano juice. This concentrate brings vibrant tropical character to beverages, desserts, and confections.
Damn that sounds really interesting. I might have grab some in my next flavour run.
Iām on my third variant of this mix, and decided to go with a natural(ish) watermelon profile. My top, body, and finish notes are all where I want them to be, but it doesnāt have the saturation i want.
Are there any flavors I could use to boost the watermelon more? Or do I need to use more flavor %?
Purilum can be pushed as high as 10% IMO, but then I would need to add more cactus and it would mess up the flavor.
JF can be pushed to 4%, but then it gets rindy and a bit harsh.
SSA can be pushed a bit, but I found any higher than 3% and I get a weird aftertaste that I donāt like, and havenāt been able to cover up.
Hereās the recipe for reference. Itās still a WIP, hence the picture and not a finished post.
I always add a low percentage of raspberry to my watermelon mixes. Maybe start 0.3, I tend to reach for premium raspberry.
Im going to have to try to add cucumber, i like cucumber with honeydew but more often i pair apples with watermelon mixes
Done something a little different this time thought id make a pod recipe just to add a little more variety to the mixalong.
So heres my entry -
I may still enter a normal/DL/sub ohm recipe to go along side it?
Hope everyones good & well, love yāall.

Have you tried FA pear? Probably one of my most used ingredients tbh, i use it anywhere i need āfleshyā or ājuicyā aspects in fruity recipes. If its used low it just adds a nice juicy mouthfeel without actually tasting any pear flavour, just keep it around 0.75 - 1% & its a really useful tool in almost any fruit recipe.
Edit - as for actually boosting the watermelon āflavourā, aside from adding another watermelon the only other thing would be pushing the ones youāre already using, the ultimate & purilum for example, i think they could be pushed quite a bit higher, i havent tried ult wm but the ultimates i have tried are all really good but pretty weak (like 4-6% range), i think the SSA could go a tad higher too (2.5-3% maybe?).
So if i were to be given the recipe & asked to try boost the wm more, i would probably first try add an extra 1% to both pur & jf wmās + an extra 0.5% ssa + 0.75-1% FA pear & see how it goes from there?
