Thanks to the ever so wonderful (diy vendor who isn't a bull) and his DIY section, a few SCE flavorings showed up. Almost immediately I quickly bought up a few and let him know I'd be sampling and reviewing. Without any further ado, here we go. Sampled on a Phenotype L clone with using 24g/36g ni80 fused claptons on a Truck PWM, set to around 3 volts. Dripping the flavor directly onto the coil without wicking up with cotton, just to make it easier to switch between.

Green Apple - 4% flavoring, 30pg/70vg

>Scent - 4% may be quite a bit too low, I can just barely smell those green apple dried chips that you find in the foil bags in the grocery store produce area. It actually doesn't smell sweet, as much as it smells dried/earthy. Even without tasting I can tell it'll be tart, but its not unpleasant/overly tart. By scent alone, this isn't your normal apple flavoring. Its nothing like fuji, TFA green apple, or anything.

> Flavor - This isn't a flavor that lasts, it doesn't stick to your mouth. It does seem to give a mouth feel a lot like if you're dried apple chips. You can actually FEEL the tartness on the inhale. This is probably the most true Granny Apple flavor out there. Its tart, in all the right ways. The apple seems to be lacking, much like the scent its not sweet, and there isn't the "watery fruity" feel you get from eating an apple. I don't know why I keep coming back to it, I just keep thinking dried apple chips. Which, isn't bad. This definitely has a throat hit to it. If you like the tickle without it being crazy, this is a nice flavor. Maybe upping the % to 6 or 8 would make this a not bad single flavor mix, but I see this being more of a base for your apples, rather then a top note to balance it out.

>Rating

5/10 - Its not bad, but its not particularly good. It doesn't make me want more, it doesn't make my mouth water. Its certainly pleasant, and this is the most true apple taste I've had. I see this going very, very well with pipe tobacco flavors, cinnamon, caramels, etc. But I wouldn't see this going well without another apple flavoring to balance it out in fruit mixes.

Banana 4% flavoring, 30pg/70vg

>Scent - This is a lot closer to a cavendish banana then a gros michel. Think a JUST ripe, but not spotted banana. This isn't anything like LA Banana Cream, or the yellow laffy taffy. Its naturally sweet without being overly ripe. High hopes so far, much more scented then the green apple at 4%.

>Flavor - This definitely needs more then 4%. I had to drip about 4 or 5 times before I could start tasting it. This is much, much more accurate to a ripe, but not overly ripe banana. There isn't any "green" to the flavor. Its not grassy, or earthy at all. In a lot of the ways we use TPA Banana Cream for banana breads, or sliced bananas for cereal vapes. I can see this going VERY well with peanut butters, cakes, and milks/creams. At 4% its not very pronounced, but I'd be willing to bet higher % would give that sort of "chalky" mouthfeel that ripe bananas tend to. Again, in a good way. Certainly a different banana then I've had so far. I could actually see this one being a staple in a lot of my recipes. Recently I've been mixing a lot of peanut butter banana vapes, I don't think this needs any balancing from combining other bananas.

>Rating

7.5/10 - This gives the most true banana mouthfeel of any banana flavors I've had. Its not overly sweet, has a natural feel, and would go great with peanut butters/cakes/etc. It doesn't immediately make me think Strawberry Banana, or Banana Kiwi type mixes. But I can't imagine it'd be awful.

Boysenberry4% flavoring, 30pg/70vg

>Scent - I'll be honest, I'm a native Arizonan and haven't spent much time anywhere else. My berry sense isn't all that keen since berries just aren't all that great here. Additionally, I have no idea what boysenberry should taste like. Its rather subtle. Again, 4% may not be enough here. But its a little bit deeper then a raspberry scent. As if you made raspberries into jam, and then somehow stuffed that back into a berry.

>Flavor - Tartness. Natural, raspberry tartness. This tastes a lot like under ripe raspberry "skin" if that gives you an idea. Its not super tart like INW Raspberry is. Its just this, naturally tart berry. A few years back I was at a crepe shop in vegas getting breakfast before the second day of IPL, I had a mixed berry crepe. This is that berry. This is much more of a juicy flavor compared to the other ones from SCE. I could see honeydew or INW Cactus going great with this even in super small amounts. This one sticks to your mouth and coats it in the "fuzzy berry skin" feeling. Its very naturally sweet, but not sweetened.

>Rating

7/10 - I'm not huge on berries, maybe that's because I don't have a fresh supply and berries are extremely perishable. This would make a great jam type berry, or I could see this being a main fruit note in a fruit mix. (Side note, I have NO idea why, but this stuff popped like nobodies business. Pressing the button with the cap off sent boiling juice flying everywhere and burnt my finger.)

Raspberry4% flavoring, 30pg/70vg

> Scent - Based on the scent alone, this smells a lot like raspberry aroma used in soaps, hair products, or something from bath and body works. This isn't bad, its not "perfumey" like when you over flavor your mixes. But its bright, and "acidic" to the nose. Even at 4% I can smell this one much more clearly then the others. This may or may not be a bad thing once tasted, but lets have a go.

> Flavor - Immediate thought is "toned down INW raspberry, with a little TFA Sweet Raspberry. Its actually not all that tart which is something I think plagues a lot of the better raspberries out there. But my immediate thoughts say this isn't going to replace any of the better ones. This one is MUCH sweeter then the other flavors tried to far. The lingering flavor that sits around well after you've exhaled is "raspberry gummy". The little raspberries in those small gummy fruit snack packages is a lot like this. I could see combining this with INW raspberry for the tartness to balance it out. Unlike the others where 4% was clearly not enough. I'm not sure I would take this one higher then 5 or 6% if I were to remake. Its much, much stronger. It doesn't immediately hit you in the face with raspberry flavor, but because there isn't that overly tart feel its much easier to feel out the raspberry flavor through your entire palate. Adding a little TFA Marshmallow for mouthfeel and this would be a rather pleasant raspberry vape.

>Rating

7.5/10 - Again, suffering the same fate of the boysenberry in that I'm not big on berry flavors. But this seems to be a very well balanced raspberry. Just enough tartness that makes you think raspberry, however it doesn't have the "fuzzy skin feel" that boysenberry gives. All I can think of is raspberry gummies, or raspberry compote that would go well on cheesecakes or in baked goods. I'd certainly recommend this if you're looking for a raspberry, but I'm doubting this will take over and be the end all, be all raspberry you're looking for.

Macadamia Nut4% flavoring, 30pg/70vg

> Scent - This one is the oddball. There's this EtOH smell to it, almost alcohol to the flavor. Right out of the bottle its sharp, nutty, but doesn't have much of a smell to it. Mixed up however and in a juice, the macadamia shines through once you get used to the EtOH feel. I can already tell without vaping this would go great with CAP Sugar Cookie, or used with vanillas and light baked mixes. Every time I go back in for a smell, I'm picking up small, incredibly subtle nuances that I just can't put my thoughts too. Cinnamony, vanilla, nutty, spiced, sweet, earthy.

> Flavor - Holy cow, I wasn't expecting that. There's this overwhelming vanilla taste that's almost immediately cut but this nutty heaviness. Its dense, and complex in all of the right ways. It doesn't necessarily coat your mouth with a heavy nutty flavor, but boy does this stuff linger. Even as I'm writing this out I'm actually salivating. I'm not sure why, but a little while after the inhale I get this "baked good/cake" feel. Its potentially the nutty vanilla spice leftover. I can tell I'm going to be mixing a lot of this. Cookies, cakes, nutty accents in breads/muffins. There aren't very many single flavor mixes that I enjoy, but this could be once of them with some tweaking to %. However I'm pairing all types of baked flavors in my head. I keep thinking of Acetyl Pyrazine and biscuits. For some, very strange reason I'm wanting to add caramel and I have no idea why. As I keep going back to it, I'm tasting creams, condensed milk, dulce de leche. This stuff is fantastic. I'm confident I'm not a super taster by any means, but this actually makes me feel like I could be. This has the same feel that single malt scotches feel after you swish them around in your mouth.

>Rating

9.5/10 - Incredibly pleasant. If you get ANYTHING from SCE, get this. I can't sing enough praise about it. its incredibly complex without being overwhelming. I'm constantly going back to it. I want to add coffee, maple syrup, chocolate, cakes, batters, cookies. I want to try and used it in the same way almonds are used in bear claws and frangipan.

Overall, I don't see SCE making its way to being main flavorings. Everything but the macadamia nut was lacking, however you can't go wrong with it. They're not bad by any means, and they're the most true flavors to their real world counterparts I've had so far. Its obvious SCE wants to stay towards natural sweetness without adding anything over the top.

TL:DR - Get Macadamia Nut for sure. Try the others if you're looking for those specific flavors. No need to go out and buy them. Except Macadamia Nut. Go out and get it right now.
