Elux Legend vs Firerose 5000 Nic Salts: What’s the Difference?
Choosing Elux Legend vs Firerose 5000 nic salts comes down to two things: the flavour line-up, 56 flavours against 28, and strength, because only Elux Legend is sold in 5mg. Everything else matches: both are 10ml bottles of 50/50 nicotine salt for mouth-to-lung kits, at the same price and in the same multibuy.
Is Firerose Elux?
Yes. Firerose 5000 is sold as an Elux line, and its bottles are Elux Firerose 5000 nic salts. It is one of the two Elux nic salt ranges we sell, alongside Elux Legend. The range is part of every product name here, as in Elux Legend Spearmint Nic Salt E-Liquid and Elux Firerose 5000 Spearmint Nic Salt E-Liquid, so you can always tell which one you are looking at.
As both ranges carry the Elux name and come in the same bottle, the more useful question is what separates them. This guide covers exactly that: the flavours in each range, the strengths, the six flavour names sold in both, and the price.
Elux Legend vs Firerose 5000 at a glance
Side by side, the two ranges differ in only two columns: flavours and strengths.
How the two Elux nic salt ranges compare on flavours, bottle size, VG/PG, strengths, price and multibuy.
| Range | Flavours | Bottle | VG/PG | Strengths | Price | Multibuy |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elux Legend Nic Salts | 56 flavours | 10ml | 50/50 | 10mg and 20mg · 5mg on 20 flavours | £2.49 | 5 for £10 |
| Elux Firerose 5000 Nic Salts | 28 flavours | 10ml | 50/50 | 10mg and 20mg | £2.49 | 5 for £10 |
Every flavour comes in 10mg and 20mg. Only some Legend flavours also come in 5mg, so check the strength on the listing itself.
What makes Firerose 5000 different from Elux Legend?
Not the format. Both ranges are nicotine salt at 50/50 VG/PG in 10ml bottles, made for refillable mouth-to-lung pod and pen kits, so a Firerose 5000 bottle goes into the same kit as a Legend one. What differs is the flavour line-up and the strengths each range is sold in.
Flavours: 56 in Elux Legend, 28 in Firerose 5000
Elux Legend is the larger range, and fruit blends are its biggest group. It has every flavour with a menthol finish, such as Banana Ice and Watermelon Ice, as well as straight Menthol and both tobacco flavours. It also carries the Elux flavour names searched for most in the UK (Ahrefs estimates, September 2026), led by Mr Blue, Tiger Blood and Gummy Bear.
Firerose 5000 has a line-up of its own, and most of its flavour names appear only in this range, from Berry Bang and Caribbean Crush to Cherry Cola, Vim-Tru and Bubblegum Airways. It has no tobacco flavour. The table pairs examples from each range by flavour type.
| Flavour type | Elux Legend examples | Firerose 5000 examples |
|---|---|---|
| Fruit | Tiger Blood, Summer Dream, Triple Mango | Berry Bang, Caribbean Crush, Mixed Berries |
| Ice | Mr Blue, Banana Ice, Watermelon Ice | Blue Crush, Ice Pop |
| Menthol and mint | Menthol, Fresh Mint, Spearmint | Spearmint, Butter Mints |
| Drinks | Oasis, Cola, Pink Lemonade | Cherry Cola, Vim-Tru, Pineapple Lemonade |
| Sweets | Gummy Bear, Rainbow, Blue Razz Gummy | Bubblegum Airways, Tutti Fruity, White Gummy |
| Citrus and sour | Lemon & Lime, Blueberry Sour Raspberry | Orange Zest, Cherry Sours |
| Creamy | Strawberry Ice Cream | Strawberry Banana |
| Tobacco | Straight Tobacco, Vanilla Tobacco | None |
Strengths: 5mg is Elux Legend only
Every flavour in both ranges is sold in 10mg and 20mg, and 20mg (2%) is the highest nicotine strength UK rules allow in e-liquid. The difference is 5mg. 20 Elux Legend flavours also come in 5mg, including Mr Blue, Menthol and Gummy Bear, while Firerose 5000 is sold in 10mg and 20mg only. The Elux 5mg nic salts page lists every flavour sold in 5mg.
Which flavours are sold in both ranges?
Six flavour names are sold as both an Elux Legend and an Elux Firerose 5000 nic salt, and each version has its own product page. All six come in 10mg and 20mg in both ranges, and the Legend versions of Blue Razz Gummy and Lemon & Lime are also sold in 5mg.
| Flavour | Elux Legend version | Firerose 5000 version |
|---|---|---|
| Blackcurrant Lemonade | Elux Legend Blackcurrant Lemonade: 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Blackcurrant Lemonade: 10mg, 20mg |
| Blue Razz Bubblegum | Elux Legend Blue Razz Bubblegum: 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Blue Razz Bubblegum: 10mg, 20mg |
| Blue Razz Gummy | Elux Legend Blue Razz Gummy: 5mg, 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Blue Razz Gummy: 10mg, 20mg |
| Lemon & Lime | Elux Legend Lemon & Lime: 5mg, 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Lemon & Lime: 10mg, 20mg |
| Spearmint | Elux Legend Spearmint: 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Spearmint: 10mg, 20mg |
| Strawberry Watermelon Bubblegum | Elux Legend Strawberry Watermelon Bubblegum: 10mg, 20mg | Firerose 5000 Strawberry Watermelon Bubblegum: 10mg, 20mg |
Because each pair shares a flavour name, choosing between the two versions comes down to strength and range. For 5mg Blue Razz Gummy or Lemon & Lime, pick the Legend bottle. Otherwise both versions come in 10mg and 20mg at the same price, so choose the range you already know; both can go in the same 5 for £10.
Similar flavours with different names
Beyond the six shared names, several flavours in the two ranges are built around the same fruit, drink or mint under different names. The table sets our taste note for each side by side, so you can find the nearest match in the other range. It compares descriptions only, and is not a claim that any two of them taste alike.
