First came vapes. Then pouches. Now there’s Perlz, the new tobacco-free alternative in oral nicotine.
But, what exactly are Perlz?
In this guide, we’ve got everything you need to know. We discuss:
• What Perlz are
• How Perlz work
• Best tips on how to use Perlz
• How Perlz compare to other nicotine products
We’ll also take you through some of the most-asked questions about Perlz so that you can best decide whether they are the right product for you.
Let’s get started.
What Are Perlz? Introducing Perlz
Perlz are small multi-layered spheres, which contain nicotine - made from xylitol and maltitol, and a choice of flavourings to give them a unique taste.
• 100% dissolvable
• 100% tobacco-free
• 100% sugar-free
Available in strengths moderate and strong.
With Perlz, you’ll experience a new discreet oral nicotine product for your convenience:
• No product waste: Crafted to dissolve completely under the tongue
• Multi-layer technology for consistent flavour and nicotine release
• Pocket-sized dispenser: Slim, easy to carry design
• Available in Mint or Berry flavour, with different strengths to suit you
What Makes Perlz Different from Other Oral Nicotine Products?
Perlz is different to:
• Nicotine gum - a more mechanical experience, requiring chewing the gum and then disposing of it when finished.
• Nicotine pouches - sit between the gum and upper lip, provide a more gradual release, and must be removed when finished.
How Do Perlz Work?
Using Perlz is straightforward.
The Perlz dispenser will release a single Perlz with a press of the three buttons, pop out a Perlz, and place it under your tongue.
The Perlz will start to dissolve. As this happens, you will feel a tingle, a sustained nicotine sensation and the release of flavour until the Perlz experience finishes. It’s a quick release, so you will start to feel the tingling sensation within a few minutes.
How long do Perz last?
Expect one Perlz to last between 10-12 minutes to fully dissolve.
Because they dissolve entirely, Perlz leave no oral waste. That makes them especially convenient for places where smoking or vaping isn’t permitted.
At a Glance: Key Benefits of Perlz
• Discreet: Perlz sit out of sight, under the tongue; no vapour
• 100% Dissolvable: Nothing to discard after use; no oral waste
• 100% Tobacco-free: Zero tobacco
• Portable: Light, pocket-sized dispensers
Nicotine Perlz VS Nicotine Pouches?
Perlz are similar to our Nordic Spirit nicotine pouches. Both are discreet, but Perlz have a quicker nicotine release - and dissolve completely without needing to be removed.
Here are 3 key features to compare Perlz and Nicotine Pouches:

Nicotine Pouches
How to use them
Placed under the tongue. Perlz will dissolve automatically – it is not recommended to chew or swallow
Placed between the gum and upper lip (similar to snus). It is not recommended to chew or swallow - throw out pouch once sensation ends

Varies. Quicker release, so 10-12 minutes on average
Varies. More gradual release, so 30-60 minutes on average
Waste
Nothing to dispose of; product fully dissolves
Must dispose of used pouch
And What About Vaping?
Vapes use a battery-powered device to heat the e-liquid, which is then inhaled by the user. These devices release vapour clouds, with the amount of vapour varying.
Users can also choose between nicotine and nicotine-free vape options.
In direct comparison to vapes, Perlz:
• Require no device
• Release no vapour
• Can be used anywhere, anytime
This makes Perlz a convenient alternative for settings where vaping isn’t an option.

Choosing Your Perlz
Step 1: First Choose Your Flavour
With Perlz, you’ll have two distinct flavoured nicotine profiles to choose from:
• Berry - A rich blend of ripe berries — strawberry, raspberry, blackberry and blueberry — delivering a perfectly balanced flavour.
• Mint - A crisp and cooling taste sensation, this flavour bursts with bright spearmint-menthol notes, rounded out by a smooth peppermint finish.
Step 2: Pick Your Preferred Nicotine Strength
When it comes to Perlz nicotine strengths, you’ll also have two options:
• Moderate – contains a moderate level of nicotine, ideal if you prefer a subtle nicotine release alongside your chosen flavour.
• Strong – contains a strong level of nicotine, ideal if you prefer a more pronounced nicotine delivery.
Users are advised to “go low and slow”, particularly if they are new* to oral nicotine products.
*Perlz are intended for use by existing adult tobacco and nicotine users.
Step 3: Use the Perlz Dispenser
Now that you’ve got your product, it’s time to try it out.
Your Perlz dispenser is light and portable. It will release one nicotine Perlz at a time with a press of three buttons.
Step 4: Place the Perlz Under Your Tongue
Place the Perlz under your tongue and let it sit comfortably. Do not chew. Instead, let the Perlz slowly dissolve, releasing its flavour and nicotine.
As it dissolves, you’ll notice a gentle tingle - that’s the multi-layer technology at work. It may feel unfamiliar at first, but you will get used to it.
Step 5: Sit Back, Enjoy the Flavour
Perlz usually dissolve completely in around 10-12 minutes, leaving nothing to dispose of afterwards. Just a discreet nicotine experience you can use anytime, anywhere - whether you’re commuting, in a meeting, or out with friends.
Top Tips on How to Best Use Perlz
Perlz are simple to use, but there are a few tips worth keeping in mind:
• Start small: If you’re new to oral nicotine*, begin with one moderate strength Perlz and see how it feels before deciding if you want to take another.
• Use with a clear mouth: We do not suggest trying to pair Perlz with food or beverages. Wait a few minutes after eating and ensure your mouth is fresh first for optimal use.
• Be patient: Perlz are designed to dissolve gradually. Let them work naturally rather than trying to speed up the process. Do not attempt to chew as this may alter the experience.
Where Can You Use Perlz?
Perlz give you a way to enjoy nicotine in situations where smoke, vapour, or oral waste simply aren’t an option. Just like nicotine pouches when travelling, Perlz allow you more flexibility with your nicotine experience.
Perlz are designed for everyday moments when discretion matters most:
• During a commute and travel: Trains, buses, and flights are often smoke-free and vape-free areas. Perlz dissolve fully under the tongue, so you can use them without needing to step outside.
• At work or in office settings: Perlz are discreet, which means only you will know they’re there. This makes them convenient for busy workdays, whether in meetings, at your desk, or moving between appointments.
• At social events: At dinners, cinemas, bars, or events, it isn’t always practical to step away. Perlz allow you to remain present without distractions.
