**Fresh Strawberry (Duomei) 0.5%/1.0% (1-7-23)** -- This, the Fresh Strawberry proved once again, that Duomei really knows how to make artificial flavors that DONT taste artificial. I started testing this one @ 0.5% and it landed squarely AS a Fresh Strawberry, which was nice and red, somewhat juicy, and had all of the telltale fresh and tart notes. It felt somewhat relaxed, so I doubled it to 1.0%, and now it seemed to open up more fully, with an increased experience, still fully red, fresh, and tart-ish. I didn't get any white, or greens from this, so it stayed squarely in the nice and juicy red camp throughout. It shared some qualities with other "Ripe" and "Juicy" SB's out there, but still somehow felt somewhat unique in it's pairings. Just below mid level sweet, and with no real off notes, it proved to be a good solo experience. I did try and push it even HIGHER, up to about 1.2%, and it DID start to curl, and some artificial jammy, and almost cotton candy notes started to appear, so I'm confident in recommending solo'ing @ 0.5%-0.95%. Even with no real take offs at normal usage rates, the strawberry field is crowded, and it's HARD to stand out. For a surprisingly "real" tasting artificial strawberry with authentically "fresh" and "tart" notes, this one was good. Not 100% sure if it was a super stand out or not but felt fairly placed @ **8.75/10**."
