Tasting Notes — Inhale to Exhale
First Inhale
The first thing that hits you is ripe, juicy watermelon — not the candy-aisle kind, but closer to biting into a chilled wedge at a July cookout. There is a slight green-rind edge at the very front of the draw that grounds the sweetness. It opens with real confidence, and the dual mesh coil pushes enough vapor to carry every note forward.
Mid-Draw Body
The sweetness curve rises steadily through the mid-draw, settling into sugary watermelon flesh territory without tipping into cloying. A faint honeydew undertone surfaces here — subtle, almost accidental, but it adds a layer most watermelon profiles skip entirely. The vapor density stays thick and satisfying, letting the fruit fill out instead of thinning.
Exhale
Cooling arrives on the exhale, right where it should. It is not an arctic blast — more of a bracing frost that lifts the fruit and clears the palate. The watermelon remains present through the cool wave rather than getting buried under ice. If you have ever bitten into a frozen watermelon slice, that is the temperature this lands at.
Aftertaste
A soft, sweet trail lingers for a good three to four seconds after the exhale. The cooling fades first, leaving behind a clean melon impression with just a touch of rind dryness. It is the kind of finish that invites another pull rather than demanding one — pleasant, not pushy.
Dimension-by-Dimension Scoring
Sweetness — 71/100 (Prominent)
Prominent sweetness that mirrors ripe summer watermelon rather than artificial candy coating. The sugar level sits comfortably high without crossing into that syrupy territory that fatigues the palate after ten puffs. We scored it 71 because the sweetness serves the fruit rather than overpowering it — a line many watermelon profiles miss.
Cooling — 68/100 (Icy)
Solidly icy at 68, the cooling strikes a measured balance. You feel the frost hit the back of the throat and spread across the palate, but it never numbs the fruit out. Our panel noted this reads like WS-23 cooling — you feel it without tasting menthol — which keeps the watermelon front and center through every draw.
Authenticity — 82/100 (Hyper-Real)
This is where the Pulse X earns its stripes. At 82, it scored Hyper-Real — the highest dimension on this profile. If you have ever bitten into a seedless watermelon from a California farm stand, you will recognize this immediately. The rind-to-flesh gradient, the watery sweetness, even the faintly vegetal undertone are all present. Most brands go candy; Geek Bar went orchard.
Aftertaste — 74/100 (Rich)
Rich and lingering at 74, the aftertaste holds a clean melon impression for several seconds post-exhale. The cooling component fades before the fruit does, which is exactly the order you want. There is no chemical residue or saccharine hangover — just a gentle watermelon echo that dissolves naturally.
Throat Hit — 62/100 (Balanced)
Balanced at 62, landing right in the middle zone. At 5% nicotine you get a noticeable kick, but the dual mesh coil smooths the delivery enough that it does not scratch. For fruit-forward profiles, we actually prefer this range — strong enough to feel present, gentle enough not to compete with the watermelon.
Aroma Intensity — 77/100 (Full-Bodied)
Full-bodied aroma at 77 — you can smell the watermelon sweetness before the device reaches your lips. The exhale cloud carries a fragrant, summery melon scent that dissipates quickly without clinging to fabrics. Compared to the RAZ DC25000 version, the Pulse X throws slightly more aroma, likely thanks to the 18mL reservoir and dual mesh setup.

How It Compares
Within our Watermelon pillar page, the Geek Bar Pulse X sits at 75/100 — two points above the RAZ DC25000 Watermelon Ice (73/100) and in the upper tier of watermelon profiles we have tested. The authenticity gap is where it pulls ahead: 82 versus the RAZ's 78. That four-point difference shows up clearly in the mid-draw, where the Pulse X delivers a more complex watermelon with layered sweetness, while the RAZ leans slightly more toward a straightforward candy watermelon read.
On cooling, the RAZ edges it out by four points (72 vs 68). Vapers who want a heavier ice hit may prefer the RAZ. But if your priority is tasting actual watermelon with ice as a supporting player, the Pulse X is the stronger pick.

Best Paired With
- Time of day: Afternoon or early evening — the cooling refreshes without being too aggressive for morning use.
- Drinks: Iced green tea, coconut water, or a light lemonade. Avoid coffee — the bitterness clashes with the melon sweetness.
- Season: A summer porch kind of flavor. Peak enjoyment outdoors on a warm day, but the cooling keeps it comfortable year-round.
- Setting: Casual — barbecues, pool days, road trips. This is not a contemplative dessert vape; it is a grab-and-go refresher.
The Bottom Line
The Geek Bar Pulse X 25000 Watermelon Ice scores 75/100 on our panel and earns a clear recommendation from us. Its standout trait is authenticity — this tastes like watermelon, not like a watermelon-scented candle. The cooling is measured, the aftertaste is clean, and the dual mesh coil keeps flavor consistent across thousands of puffs. If you are shopping for a watermelon ice profile and care more about fruit fidelity than maximum frost, this belongs on your shortlist.

Common Questions
How long does the Geek Bar Pulse X 25000 Watermelon Ice last?
Geek Bar rates it at 25,000 puffs in Regular Mode and 15,000 in Pulse Mode. In our testing, moderate daily use (300-400 puffs/day) stretched the device across roughly six to eight weeks in regular mode. Your mileage varies based on draw length and frequency.
Is Watermelon Ice the same as plain Watermelon on the Pulse X?
No. The Watermelon Ice variant adds a distinct cooling layer scored at 68/100 on our scale. The non-ice Watermelon profile would score near zero on cooling. If you prefer pure fruit with no frost, look for a plain Watermelon option instead.
Does the 3D curved screen affect flavor or battery life?
The screen itself has no impact on flavor delivery. It does draw a small amount of battery, but with an 820mAh cell powering the display and coil, we did not notice meaningfully shorter device life compared to screen-free disposables at similar puff counts.
How does Pulse Mode change the Watermelon Ice flavor?
Pulse Mode increases power to the dual mesh coil, producing warmer, denser vapor. In our tasting, this slightly amplified the sweetness and cooling intensity while reducing total puff count to around 15,000. Regular Mode gave a more balanced profile that we preferred for this specific flavor.
What nicotine strength does the Geek Bar Pulse X Watermelon Ice come in?
The Pulse X 25000 is available in 5% (50mg) salt nicotine. As of this review, Geek Bar does not offer a lower-nicotine version of the Pulse X, though their Pulse Zero line carries a 0% option in select flavors.
WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical. You must be 21+ to purchase.
