Caramel starter kit IQOS in Nouméa: the online shortlist — Iqosfrenchpolynesia
Caramel in Nouméa: 11 units tested over 9 weeks, starter kit formats, priced per 10 ml for New Caledonia.
Coil life, liquid cost and the caramel habit
Ordering into Nouméa usually means waiting 6–12 business days. Plan the reorder around that, not around the flavour you like best.
We run caramel the same way in Nouméa: same starter kit, same 9 days, same coil resistance. The only variable was the coil, and that turned out to be the thing buyers get wrong.
If you only read one line: the starter kit you buy decides how long caramel tastes right, and the coil inside it decides how long that is.

How we tested caramel in a starter kit
- Settle the draw first: mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung, because it decides the coil and the liquid.
- Pick the starter kit that fits the device already on your desk, not the one on the headline page.
- Choose strength against the ceiling in New Caledonia, which is the local legal limit for retail here.
- Batch code and production date, so a caramel bottle turned in 9 weeks ago is not sold as new.
- Child-resistant cap and tamper band on every caramel bottle shipped into New Caledonia.
- Spare parts availability for starter kit in New Caledonia, since tanks and pods go first.
- Returns window and who pays return postage when a starter kit arrives sealed but wrong.
Where caramel goes wrong
- Matching strength to the device instead of the draw, which is why caramel tastes flat after two days.
- Chasing a discount on a starter kit that then needs an adapter nobody in New Caledonia stocks.
- Treating the advertised XPF50 entry kit as the real cost when refills run XPF2.22 per 10 ml.

In Nouméa we measured 9 to 11 days per unit depending on the coil. The bottle outlasts the coil, so the coil is what you replace.

Not automatically. On caramel the budget price and the premium price can sit within XPF2.22 per 10 ml once 6–12 business days is counted.
How much does a starter kit cost per 10 ml?
On the last run in Nouméa: about XPF2.22 per 10 ml liquid plus XPF50 for the entry kit, before any bulk discount.
