The Best PIXL Vape Flavours: Top 10 PIXL 8000 Picks

The PIXL 8000 is the refillable, prefilled-pod version of the hugely popular PIXL 6000 disposable, keeping the same PIXL flavours in a rechargeable kit with swappable pods.

There are forty flavours in the 8000 range. Below are our top ten, what each one tastes like and who it suits, followed by the full list. Every flavour has its own pod in the PIXL 8000 refill pod range. If your kit will not fire, our PIXL 8000 unlocking guide covers the five-press fix.

All 40 PIXL 8000 Flavours At A Glance

The forty PIXL 8000 flavours divide into nine profiles, and every one of them is listed here. Blue razz and berry is the largest group with eleven, cherry is next with six.

Eighteen of the forty share a name with a bottle in the PIXL nic salt range, so a favourite from a pod can usually be had in 10ml for a refillable kit.

Four flavours carry Ice in the name, but nine of the forty contain menthol. Starmix, Paradise Punch, Hawaiian Oasis, Strawberry Burst and Blue Magic are all cooled and none of them says so in the name, so the cooling line on each entry below is worth a look before you order three of the same thing.

Top 10 PIXL 8000 Flavours

1. Pixl Dust - Best Overall

The signature PIXL flavour, a sweet mixed-berry and sweet shop blend that is hard to pin to one fruit.

PIXL build it from mixed berries and fizzy sherbet, which is why it reads as sweet and tangy at the same time and why nobody describes it quite the same way twice. There is no menthol in it. It is the house flavour, and on most bar brands the house flavour is the best seller.

• Profile: Sweet shop and berry
• Cooling: None
• Sweetness: High
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: sweet-tooth vapers who want the classic PIXL taste. Start here if you only try one.

Try next: Rainbow Rush, which is the same sherbet idea over mixed fruit, or Starmix if you want it sweeter.

2. Starmix - Best Sweet Shop

A fruity gummy-sweet mix that tastes just like the bag of sweets.

A pick and mix bag rather than one sweet, with several gummy notes layered so none of them takes the lead. The part most people miss is that PIXL finish it with menthol, so there is a cool lift on the exhale under all that sugar. It stops the sweetness becoming hard work over a full pack.

• Profile: Sweet shop
• Cooling: Menthol finish, behind the sweets
• Sweetness: Very high
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: sweet shop fans after the most moreish flavour in the range.

Try next: Rainbow Rush for mixed sweets with no cooling, or Blue Razz Cotton for the other very sweet pod.

3. Watermelon Ice - Best All Day Vape

Fresh watermelon with a clean, cool menthol finish.

Watermelon reads cool before anything is added to it, so the menthol here lifts something that was already there rather than covering the fruit. The fruit stays juicy and recognisable and the cold stays behind it. The cooling is moderate rather than glacial, which is what makes it hold up over a full pack.

• Profile: Fruit and menthol
• Cooling: Menthol, moderate rather than glacial
• Sweetness: Medium
• Also a 10ml nic salt: Yes

Best for: anyone who wants a crisp, refreshing all-day vape, especially in warm weather.

Try next: Raspberry Watermelon for the same fruit with no cooling at all, or Cherry Ice for a different fruit at a similar temperature.

4. Mango Ice - Best Tropical

Ripe mango over ice, smooth and sweet without being sickly.

Mango is heavy enough to take the menthol without vanishing under it, which lighter fruits are not. The fruit and the cold arrive together instead of one smothering the other, and it is the least likely of the iced pods to taste thin. Heavier fruits also carry the 20mg nicotine more smoothly, so it is a good pick if other pods have caught your throat.

• Profile: Tropical and menthol
• Cooling: Menthol, arriving with the fruit
• Sweetness: Medium to high
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: tropical fruit fans who like a chilled finish.

Try next: Pineapple Ice for a sharper iced tropical, or Tropical Wave for the same fruit family with no cooling.

5. Blue Razz Cotton - Best Blue Razz

Blue raspberry candyfloss, sweet and tangy with a soft sugary finish.

Candyfloss first, fruit second. The spun sugar note is soft and slightly powdery and it is what separates this from the three other blue razz pods in the range. No menthol anywhere in it, so nothing cuts the sweetness, and it is one of the two sweetest pods PIXL make. Most people keep it as a second pack rather than an only one.

• Profile: Sweet shop and blue razz
• Cooling: None
• Sweetness: Very high
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: sweet-and-sour fans who want something a bit different.

Try next: Blue Razz Lemonade or Blue Razz Chew for blue raspberry without the spun sugar.

6. Strawberry Kiwi Razz - Best Fruit Blend

Strawberry and kiwi with a raspberry twist, nicely balanced.

Three fruits, with raspberry as the sharp one. Strawberry gives the body, kiwi brings a green tartness no berry can, and the raspberry sharpens the finish. There is no menthol in it, so the sharpness comes from the fruit rather than from cooling. Three fruits is as many as PIXL layer into one pod here.

• Profile: Fruit blend
• Cooling: None
• Sweetness: Medium
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: fruit-mix lovers after the best all-round fruit flavour.

Try next: Strawberry Kiwi Bubba for the same pairing done sweeter, or Strawberry Burst if you want strawberry with a menthol finish.

7. Rainbow Rush - Best Mixed Fruit

A bright mixed fruit and sweet medley, like a handful of rainbow sweets.

Mixed fruit over fizzy sherbet, with no single fruit given the lead. You keep noticing different things rather than settling on one, which is either the appeal or the frustration depending on your taste. Sweet the whole way with no menthol and no sour edge. Blends also hold up better over a full pack than single fruits, which tend to fade near the end of a container.

• Profile: Mixed fruit and sweets
• Cooling: None
• Sweetness: High
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: anyone who wants a bit of everything and cannot pick just one fruit.

Try next: Pixl Dust for the same sherbet idea over berries, or Starmix if you want it sweeter and cooled.

8. Paradise Punch - Best Holiday Flavour

A tropical fruit punch of mango, pineapple and passionfruit.

A mixed tropical punch rather than any one fruit, sweet and full bodied, and PIXL finish it with menthol so there is a cool edge most people do not expect from the name. Side by side with Hawaiian Oasis, which is also cooled, this is the bolder and sweeter of the two. Neither is subtle.

• Profile: Tropical and menthol
• Cooling: Menthol finish, over the fruit
• Sweetness: High
• Also a 10ml nic salt: No

Best for: holiday-flavour fans who want something juicy and tropical.

Try next: Hawaiian Oasis for the smoother cooled tropical, or Tropical Wave if you would rather have no cooling.

9. Fresh Mint - Best Menthol

A clean, straightforward menthol with no added fruit.

It comes from peppermint and spearmint rather than added menthol, and the difference is real. Menthol on its own is cold with nothing behind it and can read medicinal. Peppermint is a herb, so there is an actual taste under the cooling, softer and rounder. Mint packs also tend to last longer than sweet ones, because the cooling keeps resetting your taste between draws.

• Profile: Mint
• Cooling: From the mint itself, no added menthol
• Sweetness: Low
• Also a 10ml nic salt: Yes

Best for: ex-menthol smokers or anyone who wants a simple palate cleanser.

Try next: Spearmint for the softer of the two mints, or Watermelon Ice if you want the cooling with fruit behind it.

10. Cherry Ice - Best Iced Flavour

Sweet dark cherry with a cool icy finish.

The most popular fruit and menthol pairing PIXL make. The cherry is fresher than the sweet shop cherries elsewhere in the range, and the menthol arrives late rather than with the fruit, which leaves the cherry intact instead of freezing it out. Cooling reads stronger in a prefilled pod than in a bottle, because the coil is tuned tight to the liquid.

• Profile: Cherry and menthol
• Cooling: Menthol, arriving after the cherry
• Sweetness: Medium
• Also a 10ml nic salt: Yes

Best for: cherry lovers who like a chilled, slightly sharp vape.

Try next: Black Cherry or Cherry Pop for cherry with no cooling, or Cherry Sour Raspberry if you want it sharper.

How We Picked These Ten

These ten are the ones that sell fastest at Ecigone, weighted so the list is not simply ten versions of the same thing. Every profile in the table above has a representative in the ten, which is why a straightforward menthol appears alongside the sweet shop blends. Sales data decides the order, and the tasting notes come from the recipes rather than from marketing copy, so a flavour described as sharp is sharp.

What flavour is Pixl Dust?

Pixl Dust is the brand's own signature flavour and one of the most searched. It is a sweet mixed-berry and sweet shop blend, and being hard to place is part of the appeal. It is the number-one flavour to start with if you are new to PIXL.

Which PIXL Flavour To Start With

Start with Pixl Dust if you want the flavour the brand is known for, and Watermelon Ice if you want something you can vape all day without tiring of it. Ex-smokers moving across from menthol cigarettes are usually best on Fresh Mint, which carries no fruit at all. If you already know you prefer sharp over sweet, Cherry Sour Raspberry and Blueberry Sour Razz are at that end of the range, and the sweet shop group is where to look if you want the opposite. Buying three at a time is the cheapest way to try a spread, since the pods are three for fifteen pounds.

PIXL 8000 or the PIXL 6000?

The 6000 was a single-use disposable and was banned from UK sale in June 2025. The PIXL 8000 is the rechargeable version that took its place, using the same flavour recipes in a kit with swappable prefilled pods, so it works out cheaper and creates less waste. It is one of our prefilled pod vape kits rather than a disposable.

Two other PIXL kits take the same recipes. The PIXL Duo 12 holds two flavours at once and you turn the mouthpiece to switch between them, and it is rechargeable with replaceable pods in the same way the 8000 is. The PIXL 5K is the smallest of the three at approximately 5,000 puffs a pack.

PIXL flavours as 10ml nic salts

Most of the popular PIXL flavours are also sold as 10ml nic salts, so you can use them in any refillable pod kit rather than only a PIXL one. Cherry Ice, Watermelon Ice, Blue Razz Lemonade and Purple Dream are among the eighteen names shared between the two ranges, at £1.99 a bottle or six for £10.

If you want to shop by taste across every brand we stock rather than just PIXL, our vape flavours page groups the whole range by profile, from fruit and ice through to sweets, dessert and tobacco.
