[0002] All types of cigarettes contain harmful substances, and the harmfulness of these harmful substances to the human body is well known. Because the aroma nicotine in cigarettes is addictive to people, most smokers cannot quit smoking.

[0003] Electronic cigarettes were created with the original intention of helping people quit smoking. The e-cigarette oil burned by electronic cigarettes, also known as atomized liquid, is usually the core of the taste. Continuously improving the taste of the e-liquid is the direction pursued by various manufacturers. Therefore, various e-liquid flavors have emerged in an endless stream, and the mint flavor is especially popular among the general public.

[0004] However, the existing mint flavored electronic cigarette atomizer has the following defects:

[0005] The ingredients contained in the peppermint oil and menthol in the traditional peppermint atomizer will cause a strong irritation to the throat when inhaled. Therefore, in order to pursue the ultimate taste, the pursuit of retaining some of the spicy feeling of mint but with a softer and fresher mint flavor began.

[0006] The present application provides a mint-based liquid to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

The higher the total score, the better the user's sensory experience.

[0069] Evaluation procedure: 10 smokers with a smoking experience of 5 to 10 years were selected as smokers. All smokers had no adverse oral health conditions. Each smoker was provided with sample groups 1 to 4 for smoking evaluation. After smoking each sample, a corresponding score was made on the score sheet. There should be at least 30 minutes between the smoking evaluations of two samples, and the mouth should be rinsed with drinking water at least 5 times.

[0070] Comparison of scaled score items

[0071]

[0072] According to the sensory evaluation results, the softness and aroma scores of experimental group 1 are significantly higher than those of other experimental groups, indicating that the additives prepared by adding the ingredients described above to a suitable ratio have good softness and aroma, moderate bitterness and moderate stimulation when used in electronic cigarettes.
