Here's one some might like to try,it's ends up as lovely Lemon Sherbert on the inhale and the tangerine comes in on the exhale,feel free to try and let me know your thoughts.
10% Capella sweet tangerine
5% Wera Garden Grapefruit
5% Wera Garden Lemon Mix
5% Wera Garden Lime
1 drop EM per ml 
I mixed this at 50/50 PG/VG 18mg.

That sounds nice - I'll have to get the concentrates next time I do some buying

Daft question, what's EM?

[bootneck]

Ethyl Maltol,it's a flavour enhancer,I use it in all my mixes,I find it helps the flavours blend better.

I thought it was a sweetener rather than an enhancer, but you reckon it blends the flavours together hmmm I've got a bottle of that, will have to try it in my mixes then.

Interesting . . . .

I find it useless as a sweetener, so as a blender it might do better. You'll have to let us know what you think Toots.

It only adds a tiny bit of sweetness to a mix,works a lot better at helping flavours to blend.

Hmmm, when I spoke to the guy at thealchemistcupboard (jeeze that's a long name) he said be very cautious with it as it's extremely sweet, only a couple of drops per 10ml he told me

How much do you put in a 10ml mix to help the flavours blend bootneck and would you just add it to the mix without incorporating it within the mixing calculator, you know, after you've done the mix?

Edit: Haha, I've just read your first post again and you say 1 drop per ml, but still would like to know if that is incorporated into the mixing calculator or not.

[bootneck]

That's extra,not in the calculator,and to be honest I mix my EM concentrate using a bottle of PA crystals in 30ml pg,I've never really noticed it give any major sweetness,I know on it's own EM can be used as a candyfloss flavour but in higher percentages.
