Availability note for Saturday 8 August 2026: this comparison records the current stock state of two similar ESSE super slim cartons at Vyqzaro — ESSE Menthol (Mechanical Green) Super Slim (SKU SS-325) vs ESSE Change Mint Ice Blast 4mg (SKU SS-288). Both were showing as available this afternoon at the same AUD carton price. This is a dated availability observation; it records what was visible today and does not predict restocks.
Price snapshot at a glance
First screen, the numbers that matter to Australian buyers comparing ESSE cartons today. Both products are listed at the same price: A$195.50 per carton (10 packs). The regular listed price for each is A$230.00, so the current price difference between the two SKUs is exactly A$0.00.
| Detail | ESSE Menthol (Mechanical Green) | ESSE Change Mint Ice Blast 4mg |
|---|---|---|
| SKU | SS-325 | SS-288 |
| Unit | 1 Carton (10 Packs) | 1 Carton (10 Packs) |
| AUD price (8 Aug 2026) | A$195.50 | A$195.50 |
| Regular listed price | A$230.00 | A$230.00 |
| Price difference | A$0.00 | |
| Stock state (8 Aug 2026) | Available | Available |
When the price difference is zero, the decision shifts to flavour direction, pack identity and SKU verification — which is exactly where these two ESSE lines differ. Both prices are in AUD for the full carton unit of ten packs.
Recorded availability state
On 8 August 2026 (Australia/Sydney time), both SKUs were recorded as in stock. The product pages for SS-325 and SS-288 both showed the in-stock label at the time of this observation, and neither displayed an out-of-stock or backorder notice.
As with every record on this site, availability is a point-in-time observation. Stock can change after the date of this post, so the product page remains the live source to check before you order.
Identity check: SKU verification first
Before comparing anything else, verify the SKU. In the Australian market context, where cartons are sourced through grey-market channels, counterfeit and mislabelled packs are a real concern — and the SKU is the single most reliable identifier on this catalogue. The two products in this comparison are deliberately similar, which makes the check even more important:
- ESSE Menthol (Mechanical Green) Super Slim — SKU SS-325
- ESSE Change Mint Ice Blast 4mg — SKU SS-288
Each SKU appears on the product page, in the product image alt text, and in the order record. If you are comparing prices elsewhere, ask the seller for the SKU and cross-check it against the full product name before you pay — a pack that looks identical in a photo can be a completely different line.
Flavour direction and format
Both are ESSE super slim cartons from the same Korean manufacturer family, but they sit in different lines. The Menthol (Mechanical Green) line carries the classic green menthol direction. The Change Mint Ice Blast sits in the ESSE Change series, a mint line whose 4mg label forms part of its product name and identity.
This record does not judge which line performs better — taste is a personal call and this site makes no such claims. If the green menthol line is what you have bought before, SS-325 is the SKU to match; if the ice-blast mint line with the 4mg label is your reference, that is SS-288.
Which one is cheaper?
Neither. The price difference between the two is A$0.00 today: both cartons are listed at A$195.50, down from a regular listed price of A$230.00 each. For an Australian buyer running a quick price comparison, that means the AUD decision does not separate SS-325 vs SS-288 — the same carton budget buys either one.
If your question is literally “which is cheaper”, the honest answer is that they are priced identically today. Across the wider ESSE range, other lines sit at different price points — for example, ESSE Change Double Applemint Wine (SKU SS-277) is listed at A$229.50 per carton. Within the two A$195.50 lines, the price is a tie.
Catalogue context
Both products belong to the Availability Change Notes coverage and the ESSE category at Vyqzaro. ESSE is the Korean super slim line familiar to many Australian smokers, particularly within the Asian-Australian community, and the catalogue currently lists five ESSE SKUs across the Menthol, Lights and Change series.
This is the first intra-ESSE pairing in the comparison series. Related records include the ESSE Menthol (Mechanical Green) stock record from 7 August and the ESSE Change Double Applemint Orange observation from 3 August.
