Research RIVM shows that e-liquids mainly contain sweet aromas and flavors

E-liquids mainly contain sweet aromas and flavors. In addition, the substance vanillin, which gives a vanilla-like taste, is at the top. This has emerged from research by the RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment . 

It is the first time in Europe that the chemical taste composition of so many liquids from electronic cigarettes (e-liquids) has been analyzed. RIVM examined 320 e-liquids. In those 320 e-liquids, 79 different aromas and flavors were examined. Vanillin was present in 42 percent of the liquids studied. Substances with a fruity taste also scored highly. The e-liquids studied contain an average of 6 different flavors.
