Perfumer’s Apprentice Vanilla Bean Ice Cream Concentrate is, by far, the best ice cream flavour we have tried; rich, creamy and smooth with a delicious vanilla taste. Most users are impressed with the versatility of this concentrate, which makes it a valuable addition to any DIY mixologist’s collection; it enhances a multitude of fruit and dessert flavours by adding a rich and creamy depth to the other flavours, but tastes wonderful just on its own. The Perfumer’s Apprentice Vanilla Bean Ice Cream is one of those concentrates that many users would never be without, but your e-liquids will need a few days’ steeping to enjoy their flavour at its best.
Recommended percentage: 5 – 10%
Recommended steep time: 1 – 4 weeks
Vanilla Bean Ice Cream is one of the flavours that could potentially form diketone (acetoin, diacetyl and acetyl propionyl). However, The Perfumer’s Apprentice have created the Vanilla Bean Gelato, which is a diketone free replica of this flavour.
Perfumer’s Apprentice flavour concentrates are among the world’s finest and they enjoy a trusted and well deserved reputation among DIY vapers. Founded in 2004 in Santa Cruz California, Perfumers Apprentice produce their flavour concentrates using only the finest ingredients, all of which are certified as food-safe and conform to the strictest standards of quality and purity enforced by the State of California.

Notes
- This is a concentrated flavouring to be mixed in a DIY e-liquid. It is not to be vaped without diluting.
- We suggest mixing most Perfumer’s Apprentice concentrates at approximately 5-10% initially and then adjusting to your personal taste.
- All of the Perfumer’s Apprentice concentrates we stock are PG based.
- There can be noticeable colour differences between different batches of the same flavour. This is a natural result of the flavour manufacturing process.
- The Perfumer’s Apprentice and The Flavour Apprentice are the same company and the products are the same. We only use the Perfumer’s Apprentice name because it is more widely recognised.

Just returned to DIY after years and this was used in my first batch. It’s lovely. Mixed it equal parts with Solub Arome Cookies at 7.5% and added 3% double choc for a hint. 70/30 mix and already I regret buying e-juice for the last few years. It’s an absolute heavenly Ice Cream sandwich.

This has become my favourite alternative to custard as I find it does not taste like playdough. The flavour is rounded and not artificial like too many custards
doug bolton –
Absolutely stunning flavour..use this in most of my mixes. Needs a good week’s steep though
Charlie –
its very nice but over powers other flavours need to mix @ 3% max
garethshelley91 –
great mixed into cheescakes
Alan –
Vaped this stand-alone when it first arrived, (around 12% I believe?), Very nice vanilla bean, not quite a peppery-nes but it kind of emulates that vanilla bean pod like the black bits in the real ice cream. Great as a mixer and stand-alone
roby-tir94 –
So,it’s amazing for the simply reason that it can be vaped stand alone or you can mix it were you need creamy vanilla.Raccomand it 🙂
skinful87 –

This really is a curious one, on its own, it has a smooth and sweet vanilla ice cream taste and the sensation in mouth is an on tongue smoothness that feels as if I am sucking on a boiled sweet, it’s quite pleasant. The curiosity occurs on the breathe out where it reveals an unusual sort of peppery sensation again not exactly unpleasant, just odd, maybe needs longer to steep. This really comes into its own though when added to give a sweet and smooth vanilla taste that brings with it that on tongue texture of a boiled sweet. Will be getting this again when needed but only for use a mixer

adds a nice creaminess to fruits and custards, I’ll be restocking this one soon.
Simon –
If there was an option to leave 101 stars I would, out of the 20 flavours I ordered this one stands out. If you’ve tried mtbakervapor and loved german chocolate beefcake flavour then you will love this!
stelios.no.mercy –
get a fruit or creamy flavor that blends well with milk (strawberries, banana, vanilla, chocolate, custard etc) and combine it with this AMAZING flavor..what u get? a sweet creamy ice-cream flavor based on your fruity or creamy selection! MUST have
Gareth –

Neil –
This IS ice cream in a bottle…Pretty much any fruit, a splash of Caramel/chocolate or both and some Koolada, ………and its an Ice cream delight!
adamw94 –
Really like this. I use a milk frother to mix my liquids. Frothing it up 2 times a day for 3/4 days mixed with a little koolada gives it a great taste.
niceol –
loved this in my mixes so far
Lee –
Very sweet and strong flavour at 15% but still nice.
mark –

leescaife321 –

Gail –
Love it in custard or with strawberry both really tasty
nelitko –

Dominic –
Really like this. A different vanilla cream flavour over the custard.
Mix this around 10-15% for my tastes.
kenneth –
I found this very weak. ended mixing with vanilla custard to save wasting it.
Oliver –
Absolutely amazing flavour a little goes a very long way. Tastes like you are eating the real thing.
rachel –

ashley.mg.watts –
This, Koolada, EM and Caramel, Chocolate, Strawberry, Jackfruit – Its movie night in with a gallon of Ice Cream good! The Koolada works a treat to bring this to ice cream dream!
suehall.1510 –
Very nice on it’s own . I like it mixed with strawberry or banana.
denys –
Very nice flavour probably be better after steeping a few weeks.
chevy121 –
Updated review- add 1% PA Koolada to 7% PA Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and 3% Inawera fruit of your choice! Incredible cooling ice cream flavour rolling down your throat like a…like… like a rolly thing!
Try any flavour you like, it’s sure to work once you get the % right.
zainfx –
really sweet creamy ice cream flavour, its great on its own mixed it at 10% tastes just like the ice cream!
john –
Another very nice flavor.
Katherine –
A very strong vanilla flavour, so much vanilla that it’s almost savoury in its vanillaness (is that a word??). Only need a little and something to sweeten it, a fruit or a bit of caramel/EM and it’s a super creamy vanilla ice cream. Have heard of people using koolada with this one, haven’t tried that yet.
chevy121 –
Love it! Absolutely love it! Great on its own or mixed with strawberry or KH rum n raisin. The Gelato version is good but this is fantastic!
allanslatter –
Can’t stop vaping on this its so nice,
Garry –
Just like ice-cream nice on its own or with a little strawberry
