Would be interested to find out peoples thoughts on this , when we developed our juices we did a lot of research and tested a lot of different products , is it just me or would you agree that a lot of todays juices are over flavoured , instead of taking the time to balance the flavour some companies are just adding more flavour to ensure the juice does actually taste of at least something , in my humble opinion i think over flavouring is as bad as under flavouring.
 
I make my own and find less is very often more. You don't need to be making mixes with 20%+ flavouring with today's equipment and is mostly unnecessary, sure some profiles may go this high but I've made juices with 4-6% flavouring that taste great.

I've no idea if you guys do it but there seems to be a trend of adding way too much sweetener into juices too. I know some vendors don't do this @vapourdepot don't I believe and neither do @NovaVapes
 
Less is definitely more with some flavourings, but it really depends on the brand / flavour house and then the actual flavouring. For example, TFA I would generally start at around 3 - 5 % in a recipe, but there's some that literally need to be used at around 0.1% or less.

Sweetener can be good, as long as its not used to mask a bad recipe.

We use sweetener in some ranges, such as Formulated Vape Co (except King Cookie Dough) & Lucha Juice to round off the flavours.

A* , Anthology & Simplicity are ranges with no added sweetener.

We try not to add sweetener unless absolutely necessary , to much sweetener leaves a very specific taste right at the end of the exhale on a lot of flavours , i do agree with you though that less is more often more , especially if your looking for an all day vape , low flavour and longer steeping every time for me , to many people adding way to much flavour and not steeping ( taking short cuts ) again just in my opinion.

I think thats the problem , people use sweetener as a short cut to mask a bad flavour instead of taking the time to develop a flavour
