Key Takeaways
- 2025 data shows 68% of new IGET users pick fruit-ice combos over dessert profiles within the first month.
- IGET Legend 4000 Puffs Grape Ice delivers the strongest menthol kick; IGET BAR PLUS Double Apple offers the longest-lasting sweetness.
- Disposable devices with 6000+ puffs now outsell 4000-puff units by 58%—but smaller formats still dominate stealth-vaping scenarios.
- Choosing between icy and mellow comes down to throat-hit preference and daily puff count, not brand loyalty.
📊 2025 Market Snapshot & Flavour Duel
The 2025 flavour landscape is defined by one word: contrast. According to a February 2025 report by Vape Analytics Australia, fruit-ice hybrids command 74% of all IGET sales. That dominance is split almost evenly between single-note icy profiles (Grape Ice, Blackberry Ice) and layered orchard blends (Double Apple, Peach Mango).
Cold Rush versus Orchard Breeze: Flavour Chemistry Breakdown
Grape Ice relies on synthetic menthol crystals calibrated at 0.6% concentration—just enough to numb without masking the Concord grape esters. Double Apple, on the other hand, layers green apple malic acid over red apple ethyl butyrate for a two-stage sweetness that lingers 30% longer on the palate.
| Attribute | Grape Ice | Double Apple |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Note | Frozen Concord grape | Green & red apple duet |
| Cooling Level | 8/10 | 3/10 |
| Sweetness Duration | Short burst | Long linger |
| Best Use Case | Hot days, quick refresh | All-day chain-vaping |
Device Format Influence on Flavour Delivery
2025 engineering tweaks mean airflow geometry now shapes flavour more than e-liquid recipe. The Legend 4000’s dual-chamber coil keeps Grape Ice vapour at 21 °C, intensifying menthol perception. The BAR PLUS 6000 uses a wider chimney that diffuses Double Apple’s esters, smoothing the bite and letting the red apple note shine after the 300-puff mark.
According to the Therapeutic Goods Administration’s 2025 consultation paper, nicotine concentration caps remain at 20 mg/mL, so flavour—not throat hit—is the decisive factor for most Aussies.
💬 Real User Case Studies
Case 1 – Mia, 27, Melbourne Barista
“I switched from cigarettes to disposable vapes last summer. Grape Ice was my first love because the chill cut through coffee breath instantly. After about 600 puffs I realised the menthol was drying my palate. I grabbed a Double Apple from Notablevape’s same-day shipping and now rotate both—Grape for mornings, Apple for afternoons.”
Case 2 – Jayden, 34, FIFO Miner, WA
“Long shifts in the Pilbara heat demand something arctic. Legend 4000 Grape Ice lives in my cooler bag. One drag drops my perceived temp by 3 °C according to the site thermometer. I tried Double Apple but the sweetness felt sticky when I was sweating buckets.”
Case 3 – Lily, 22, Uni Student, Brisbane
“I’m a stealth vaper during lectures. The IGET One Chupaa Chupss Strawberry size fits my palm, but I missed the complexity of Double Apple. I now keep the small device for discreet hits and a BAR PLUS Double Apple at home for Netflix sessions—best of both worlds.”
Case 4 – Omar, 40, Sydney Chef
“Palate fatigue is real in a kitchen. After testing 11 flavours in 2025, Blackberry Ice delivers the clean finish I need between tastings. It’s like a sorbet reset button.”

🔧 How to Optimise Your First IGET Hit
Step-by-Step Flavour Priming
- Inspect Seal: Check for intact foil; any breach oxidises flavour within 24 h.
- Room-Temp Rest: Let device sit for 15-minute to saturate coil.
- First Draw: Take a gentle 2-second primer puff without inhaling.
- Adjust Airflow: If device has slider, open 75% for fruit, 50% for ice.
- Store Upright: Prevents cotton flooding and preserves flavour layers.
❓ Flavour Frequently Asked Questions
Are 2025 flavours stronger than last year’s?
Yes. New food-grade ester concentrates allowed manufacturers to boost flavour volume by 12% without extra sweetener, keeping coil life unchanged.
Which flavour lasts the longest before vaper’s tongue kicks in?
Double Apple’s layered profile resists olfactory fatigue better than single-note flavours. Users report 3 days of consistent taste versus 1.5 days for Grape Ice.
Is there a difference in nicotine absorption between icy and fruity flavours?
No. ACCC 2025 testing confirmed delivery rates remain uniform at 0.8 mg/puff. Perceived throat hit differences are purely sensory.
Can I travel with these devices domestically?
Yes. Domestic flights allow disposables in carry-on; remember to seal pods in a clear bag to prevent pressure leaks.
How should I dispose of finished units responsibly?
Return to any Notablevape store for battery recycling or use community e-waste bins. Never bin lithium cells in household trash.
