Odin is one of the most distinctive-looking cans on the nicotine pouch shelf: bright white lid, bold red gothic lettering and a no-nonsense, mint-only range. If you have spotted it in our Odin collection and wondered whether it is worth a try, this review covers every flavour, the real strength behind each label, the format, the price and who should (and should not) buy it.

How this review works: it is based on the Odin product specifications and packaging, retailer data sheets and published reviewer notes. Flavour descriptions come from those sources rather than from a lab test, and individual experience will vary.

Key Takeaways
  • Odin is a mint-only range with four flavours: Cold Mint, Double Mint, Siberian Cold and Wintergreen
  • Three strength tiers are sold at The Snus Outlet, labelled 8 mg, 16.5 mg and 35 mg, which are per gram figures, not per pouch
  • Retailer data sheets put the X-Strong tier at roughly 17.5 mg per 0.5 g pouch, so treat it as an experienced-user product
  • The can is labelled White Dry Slim, a discreet format that sits flat under the lip
  • Our price is €4.99 per can, with free EU shipping on orders over €99

What Is Odin? Brand Overview

Odin is a tobacco-free nicotine pouch brand built around cold, clean mint flavours and a plain white pouch. The can carries a "Born in Sweden" line, and the flavour names (Cold Mint, Double Mint, Siberian Cold, Wintergreen) will feel familiar to anyone who has used classic Scandinavian white snus.

Sources disagree on exactly which factory fills the cans, so we will not guess. What matters for buyers is the spec on the can: a white, dry, slim pouch with a mint focus and a clear strength label.

Odin Flavours: The Full Mint Line-Up

Flavour Profile Best for
Cold Mint Straightforward cool mint, described by retailers as a refreshing blast of cold Anyone who wants a classic, no-surprises mint
Double Mint Layered mint, a little rounder and sweeter than plain cold mint Users who find pure menthol too sharp
Siberian Cold The coolest of the range, with a sharp, clean chill Fans of ice and freeze flavours
Wintergreen Sweet, medicinal-leaning mint with a satisfying aftertaste Anyone who likes a more distinctive profile

There are no fruit, coffee or cola options here. If you want variety, pair Odin with something from our fruity range and keep Odin as your mint staple.

Odin Strengths Explained: What 8, 16.5 and 35 mg Really Mean

This is the part that confuses most buyers. On our store the Odin products are labelled 8 mg, 16.5 mg and 35 mg. Those numbers are nicotine per gram of pouch material, the way many Scandinavian cans are labelled. A typical Odin pouch weighs around 0.5 g, so the nicotine per pouch is roughly half the headline number.

Label on our store Approx. per pouch* Level Who it suits
8 mg About 4 mg Light Newer users and light daily use
16.5 mg About 8 mg Strong Regular users who want a solid kick
35 mg (X-Strong) About 17.5 mg Extra strong Experienced, high-tolerance users only

*Estimated from the per-gram labels and a 0.5 g pouch, in line with retailer data sheets (a 3.5% nicotine X-Strong is listed at 17.5 mg per pouch, and a reviewer calculated 16.5 mg/g as 8.25 mg per pouch). Always check the can in your hands.

For context, a narrative review in PubMed found that nicotine pouches contain widely varying levels, from 1 to 47 mg per pouch, and that their high pH can increase absorption through the lining of the mouth. A 2024 study in Frontiers in Pharmacology also reported that some small pouches deliver high nicotine doses. The takeaway: do not start on the strongest tier.

Format and Feel: White Dry Slim

The can is labelled White Dry Slim. Slim pouches sit flat under the lip and are easy to wear for long sessions without drawing attention, which is why they are popular for work and travel. Our dry nicotine pouches collection and discreet range cover similar formats.

One reviewer measured a can at 11 g holding 22 pouches of 0.5 g each. Published ingredient lists for the X-Strong range include cellulose, water, nicotine, salt, an acidity regulator, preservative, xanthan gum, sweetener and flavouring. Texture is described differently by different reviewers (some say semi-moist, retailers say dry), so expect a modest amount of moisture rather than a soggy pouch.

Price: Is Odin Good Value?

At €4.99 per can in our shop, Odin sits in the mid-price bracket. It is not the cheapest strong pouch around. If your priority is maximum nicotine per euro, our best value pouches and the outlet deals are worth comparing. Orders over €99 ship free within the EU, so a multi-can mix is the smart way to buy.

How to Get the Best Out of Odin

A few simple habits make a big difference with any strong mint pouch, and Odin is no exception.

  1. Match the tier to your tolerance. If you currently use a 4 to 6 mg pouch, the 8 mg Odin tier is the natural match. The 16.5 mg tier is a step up, and the X-Strong tier is a big jump.
  2. Place it high and flat. Slide the pouch between the gum and the upper lip, flat side towards the gum. This keeps the cooling sensation even and avoids pooling saliva.
  3. Take it slow. Strong menthol and wintergreen can tingle in the first minutes. Give it time to settle before you decide whether the flavour is for you.
  4. Rotate sides. Alternating left and right helps avoid irritation at one spot, especially with cooling flavours like Siberian Cold.
  5. Dispose of it properly. Used pouches go in the bin, not on the ground.

If you notice dizziness, nausea or a racing heart, the strength is too high for you. Take the pouch out, drink some water and step down a tier next time.

A Simple Starter Plan for Odin

Not sure which flavours to try first? Here is an easy way to build a first order that also gets you over the free shipping line.

  • Two cans of Cold Mint (8 mg): your everyday baseline and the easiest way to judge the Odin mint profile.
  • One can of Siberian Cold (16.5 mg): a stronger, icier option for when you want more punch.
  • One can of Wintergreen or Double Mint: a change of pace so the range does not get repetitive.
  • A few cans from other brands: add a ZYN, VELO or LOOP favourite and a fruity can to round out the mix and push the basket past €99.

Mixing brands also keeps your tolerance in check. Using the same strong pouch all day, every day, tends to push you towards ever higher strengths, whereas rotating tiers helps you stay at the level you actually need.

Storage Tips

Keep cans in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and close the lid properly after each use. Heat can dry out pouches and dull the mint flavour. If you buy in bulk, store the spare cans in the fridge or a cupboard rather than a hot car or windowsill. Keep all nicotine products out of reach of children and pets.

Who Should Buy Odin (and Who Should Skip It)

  • Buy it if you love cold, clean mint, want a plain white slim pouch and like clear light, strong and X-Strong tiers.
  • Start with the 8 mg tier if you are newer to pouches, then move up. Our strength guide explains how.
  • Skip it if you want fruit, coffee or dessert flavours, or you are not already a nicotine user. Pouches are for adult nicotine users only.

Nicotine is addictive whatever the format. The US National Institute on Drug Abuse offers background on nicotine dependence if you are thinking about cutting down.
