Trying to clone The After Party by Teleos. Looking for feedback on my recipe!

I have been trying to clone The After Party by Teleos for a while now and cant seem to get it right. I've come up with a recipe that I think is close and has some of the same notes, but it isn't a clone. I posted it on another thread but it doesn't seem like that thread is very active anymore, so I figured I'd try this. Hope you enjoy and would love some feedback, especially if you have had After Party before.

P.S. I'm still only about a month into DIY, but cloning this juice has been my goal since I began.

Mixed at 70/30 VG/PG
4% Vanilla Bean Gelato (TFA)
2% Cookie (FA)
2% Yellow Cake (FW)
1% Raspberry (FA)
1% Meringue (FA)
1% Fresh Cream (FA)
1% Sweet Cream (TFA)
1% Acetyl Pyrazine (5% in PG) (TFA)
0.5% Brown Sugar Extra (TFA)
0.5% Joy (FA)

Never had it, but looking at your recipe I would say that 5% AP is pretty high. At such a high percentage you'll be vaping Fritos. Lol. I would try it at maybe 2%

Oops, never mind

I had to Google Acetyl Pyrazine to find out it is a flavor and to me it sounds like some kind of chemical. I never had the After Party but it brings back memories..........

I reworded it a little bit to avoid further confusion. I've been vaping this all day and have been loving it. I hope somebody gives it a try.

Its actually a fairly typical flavor to use in vape juice. I wasn't quite sure what it was when I first started mixing, but I noticed a few recipes online that had that in it, so I decided to order a bottle. I immediately recognized the smell from some vendor juices I have had.

I'm a MAJOR fan of Afterparty. Just getting started with DIY. You posted this recipe six months ago. Have you made any alterations that got you closer to the profile?

Unfortunately, no. I vaped this recipe for a few weeks, and it's OK, but The Afterparty is much tastier. I started using a copycat recipe for Grants Vanilla Custard and have been vaping that, pretty much exclusively. Like I said, I think this recipe is a step in the right direction, and it has some of the same flavors as The Afterparty, but it definitely still needs some work.

So, I randomly did a Google Search last night to see if anybody had cracked the recipe for Teleos The Afterparty, and came across this recipe. I haven't tried it yet, but will as soon as I get a couple of flavors in the mail.

Recipe:
1% Biscuit (INAWERA)
1% Meringue (FA)
2.5 % Raspberry (CAP)
3% Sugar Cookie (CAP)
1% Sweeter (Didn't specify)
3% Vanilla Cupcake (CAP)
1.5% Vanilla Swirl (TFA)

I can't wait to try this recipe! I have a feeling it will need .25%-.5% of Joy(FA).

Edit: Just mixed up 60 ml of the above recipe (except I left out the sweeter, which I think is Sucralose, but I only have EM).. It's been a while since I've had the original, but that recipe is damn close and very tasty. I may experiment with adding some sweetner, or perhaps Joy (FA) in the future, but this is good enough for now. Oh, and I only made it about 15 mins ago.. So, I'm sure it will be even better after steeping!

Revisiting this post after at least a moon cycle or two . I just received a bottle of Zeppola by Flavourart. I made up a 60ml bottle of

2% Zeppola (FA)
1% Vienna Cream (FA)
.5% Flavourart Maple (FA)
.5% Flavourart Vanilla Tahiti (FA)
and then, for good measure and a bit of "yeastiness" --just 4 drops of FA Joy.

Hands down, this is the _closest_ I've come to actually tasting the fried donut or, as per the original description from the Afterparty vendor, beignet aspect of this particular raspberry bakery dessert. While it's clear I will need to make some adjustments as I go along, I am new to DIY and not sure how I am going to proceed as far as the raspberry portion goes but for the base this was, more or less, a happy accident that, once tasted, I really wanted to share. I've been vaping it all day and am excited to see how it transforms with a few days homogenization under its belt.

PS - When I first vaped Afterparty, the raspberry portion always reminded me a lot of this:

I'm just not sure what percentage of raspberry & lemon I should use to not overpower the beignet. I only want enough lemon to brighten the raspberry - not turn it into raspberry lemonade.
