Test: Nicotine pouches VELO Ice Alaska and VELO Ice Cool

Review of pouches of VELO Ice Alaska and VELO Ice Cool

In this test, I'd like to share my feelings on two legends (in all honesty): pouches VELO Ice Alaska and VELO Ice Cool nicotine. First and foremost, VELO is one of the best brands of pouches nicotine brands on the market*, and also one of the oldest. Originally formed under the name EPOK, the brand became best known in Europe under the name LYFT. With recipes mastered from A to Z, impeccable quality and perfectly balanced flavours, VELO has been on the cutting edge since its inception. 

In 2022, LYFT becomes VELO

In 2022, the brand takes on a whole new dimension. Stop saying LYFT: VELO is coming! Rest assured, the recipes that have made the brand's reputation remain unchanged, just the brand name and logo on cans. The flavors are also changing names: VELO Freeze becomes VELO Ice Alaska, while VELO Ice Cool remains unchanged. 

What Mathieu thought of pouches VELO Ice Alaska and VELO Ice Cool nicotines

Packaging
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

VELO packaging has evolved slightly since my last Test de Mathieu. Still very minimalist and trendy, the design of cans provides all the information you need at a glance. A very good point! The name of the flavor and the format (in this case Slim, the most common pouches nicotine format on the market and undoubtedly the best compromise between discretion and longevity). In the brand logo, we find the strength: here Strong or X-Strong, for experienced nicotine users.

The airtight compartment on top of the can is also featured. Very practical for storing used pouches when you don't have a garbage can to hand. cans are made from recyclable plastic, so don't hesitate to dispose of them in the appropriate containers! In 2023, let's all be eco-responsible with VELO!

Flavours and aromas
⭐⭐⭐⭐

You don't become a nicotine bestseller pouches for no reason! The flavors offered by VELO are simply among the most popular on the market.

Here are the flavors we tested today:

VELO Ice Alaska Strength: X-Strong Flavor: Peppermint, Iced menthol

Ice Cool BICYCLES Strength: Strong Flavor: Fresh mint, Strong peppermint

VELO Ice Alaska X-Strong: pouches contains nicotine with a kick of 11mg per pouch, slightly spicy peppermint flavours, and vegetable fibres. I love this icy sensation, it's really a very fresh flavor, perfect for satisfying your nicotine needs while having good breath to boot! 

VELO Ice Cool Strong: A fresh mint-peppermint duo to great effect. A flavor that does its job! 

I have to admit, I'm still a little disappointed. These are less original flavors than some competitors like XQS offer, but they're still very successful and among the best-sellers on nicopouches.fr. Timeless!

The good news is that the aromas linger over time. Simply impressive!

Feeling under the lip
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

You don't change a recipe that works well (except perhaps to improve it, if that's really possible?) In any case, VELO pouches VELO nicotine buds are as comfortable under the lip as ever. Still immaculately white, they've earned their All White epithet. 

Only slightly larger than the pouches Mini, they remain perfectly comfortable under the lip and are invisible. This is a major advantage for smokers who want to consume nicotine without the option of smoking or vaping, or who want to start smoking cessation!

Efficiency and discretion
⭐⭐⭐⭐

These are pouches standard nicotine products, like the vast majority of pouches nicotine products available on nicopouches.fr. Slightly moist, they instantly release nicotine and flavors on contact with the gums. On the other hand pouches Dry type must first be slightly rehydrated under the lip before releasing their active ingredients. 

Their duration is quite satisfactory for slim packs. pouches In Slim format, expect a good half-hour of diffusion before you have to throw away your used nicotine pouch. 

Conclusion
⭐⭐⭐⭐

VELO continues to prove that it is one of the best nicotine brands pouches in France. With well-balanced, controlled flavors, neat packaging, average shelf life and unfailing discretion, VELO Ice Cool and VELO Ice Alaska are perfect for heavy smokers just starting out. pouches VELO Ice Cool and VELO Ice Alaska nicotine flavors are perfect for heavy smokers just starting out with pouches nicotine to try and quit smoking, and for nicotine smokers looking for fresh, strong sensations!
