FUMI is a range of nicotine pouches sold as snus, with 24 products on our France shelf and strengths running from 4mg to 15mg per pouch. Every can of FUMI snus carries one of four strengths, 4mg, 8mg, 11mg or 15mg, and the flavours divide between cool mints, bright fruit and a pair of blends that combine the two. The range is built the way a road bike's gears are on the climb out of Bédoin towards Mont Ventoux, where the lowest gear and the steepest one belong to the same machine and the rider chooses where to sit. Our products are for adults aged 18+, and we deliver to France.

Is FUMI Snus or a Nicotine Pouch?
FUMI is a nicotine pouch, and in everyday conversation it is also called snus, which is the word our shop in France uses for it. Traditional snus began as moist ground tobacco placed under the upper lip, while nicotine pouches take the same place and the same small portion shape with a filling built around added nicotine. Over time the older word stretched to cover both, just as the word coffee covers an espresso at a Marseille counter and a long filter cup alike. On a FUMI can, the details that matter for choosing are the mg per pouch and the flavour name, and those two set one FUMI apart from another far more clearly than the word on the lid.
What Should You Know About FUMI Before Opening a Can?
The useful things to know about FUMI before opening a can are its strength per pouch, its flavour, its format and how long a pouch stays in. Strength comes first because it is printed as a single number, and the full ladder of FUMI strengths in mg sets every level beside the flavours that carry it. Timing is simpler than many people expect. A FUMI pouch is kept in for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the user's preference, and how long a FUMI lasts is answered in more detail on its own.
The routine is the same as for any snus, with one pouch placed under the upper lip and left there until you take it out, and using FUMI for the first time is laid out step by step. Flavour is where FUMI shows the most variety, so anyone in Paris or Bordeaux who wants the whole shelf in order can turn to the FUMI flavours ranked. The Mini cans and the regular cans are set side by side in the FUMI lines and formats, and the practical matter of getting FUMI in France has its own answer as well.
Which Strengths Is FUMI Snus Sold In?
Across our French shelf, FUMI snus is sold at 4mg, 8mg, 11mg and 15mg per pouch. Measured on our own scale, 4mg is Light, 8mg is the hinge between Light and Medium, and both 11mg and 15mg are Medium. Nothing in the FUMI range reaches our Strong band, which starts at 16mg, so this is a brand for the lower and middle gears. The sections below pair each strength with its flavours, so moving from one step to the next is easy to follow.
Which FUMI Cans Are 4mg?
Seven FUMI cans carry 4mg per pouch, and FUMI 4mg holds the widest mix of formats in the range. Fumi Blackcurrant 4mg leads the dark fruit side, Chilled Cherry 2.0 sits beside it, and Fumi Freezy Mint 4mg covers mint at the gentlest FUMI strength. Both Mini cans live here too, Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg, while Tangy Strawberry and Fumi Watermelon Mint 4mg complete the set. As the lowest strength FUMI makes, FUMI 4mg is where the range begins.
Which FUMI Cans Are 8mg?
Twelve FUMI cans carry 8mg per pouch, which makes FUMI 8mg the busiest strength in the range by some distance. Several FUMI 4mg flavours return at 8mg, twice the figure, with Blackcurrant, Chilled Cherry 2.0, Tangy Strawberry and Watermelon Mint among them, so a flavour settled on at 4mg can move up a level without changing. FUMI 8mg is also home to the Fiery names, with Fumi Fiery Lime 8mg joined by Fiery Mango, Fiery Mint and Fiery Peach. Green Apple, Minty Blueberry, Salty Raspberry and Spearmint fill out the FUMI 8mg shelf.
Which FUMI Cans Are 11mg and 15mg?
Two FUMI cans carry 11mg, Fumi Freezy Mint 11mg and Fumi Spearmint 11mg, and three carry 15mg, Fumi Fiery Lime 15mg, Fumi Freezy Mint 15mg and Fumi Spearmint 15mg. Fiery Lime is the only fruit flavour in our French FUMI range to reach the top strength. Freezy Mint therefore runs through 4mg, 11mg and 15mg, and Spearmint through 8mg, 11mg and 15mg. Keeping a familiar FUMI flavour fixed and changing only the number works as a cyclist keeps the same bike and shifts gear when the road rises.
What Is the mg Figure on a FUMI Can Telling You?
The mg figure on a FUMI can states how much nicotine one pouch holds, and it sits behind every strength on our shelf. Some listings add mg per gram, which expresses concentration by weight rather than by pouch. To convert, take the mg per gram number and multiply it by what one pouch weighs in grams; the answer is the nicotine in that single pouch. A lighter pouch at an identical concentration therefore holds less than a heavier one, which makes the per pouch figure the fairer basis for comparing two cans.
The conversion matters most when formats differ. Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg both state 4mg per pouch, the same as the regular 4mg cans, so strengths can be compared directly even though the format changes. Reading the per pouch number first and the flavour second keeps any FUMI comparison orderly, in the order a chess player follows when counting the pieces before admiring the board. That being said, the flavour name still decides a great many purchases once the strength is settled.
Which Flavours Are in the FUMI Range?
The FUMI range spans mint, fruit and two blends that join the two, and every one is on our French shelf. Names such as Fiery, Tangy, Salty and Freezy describe a style rather than a single fruit, and a style can turn up on several flavours. Fiery shows up on lime, mango, mint and peach, rather like a surname tying together relatives who look quite different.
Which FUMI Flavours Are Mint?
The mint flavours in FUMI are Freezy Mint, Spearmint and Fiery Mint. Freezy Mint appears at 4mg, 11mg and 15mg, with a Mini version at 4mg, while Spearmint appears at 8mg, 11mg and 15mg. Fiery Mint sits at 8mg alone. Between them, the mint family covers every FUMI strength from 4mg to 15mg, which makes mint the one family where a reader can travel the whole ladder without leaving it.
Which FUMI Flavours Are Fruit?
The fruit side of FUMI is the largest family, spreading from berries to citrus, orchard and tropical fruit. Blackcurrant, Chilled Cherry 2.0 and Tangy Strawberry each appear at both 4mg and 8mg, and Strawberry Mini adds a Mini format at 4mg. Fiery Lime, Fiery Mango and Fiery Peach bring the Fiery style to fruit at 8mg, with Fiery Lime continuing to 15mg. Green Apple and Salty Raspberry complete the family at 8mg, the second of them carrying the Salty style into a berry.
Which FUMI Flavours Mix Mint and Fruit?
Two FUMI flavours put mint and fruit in the same pouch, Watermelon Mint and Minty Blueberry. Watermelon Mint appears at 4mg and 8mg, which gives it the same two step choice as the main fruit flavours, and Minty Blueberry sits at 8mg. A shopper in Lyon who cannot decide between the mint and fruit sides of the range will find these two sitting usefully between them.
Which FUMI Cans Come in a Mini Format?
Two FUMI cans on our shelf in France come in a Mini format, Fumi Freezy Mint Mini 4mg and Fumi Strawberry Mini 4mg. Both carry 4mg per pouch, so choosing a Mini is a decision about format and flavour, with the strength unchanged. Every other FUMI can carries no Mini label. The two Mini cans also split neatly between the families, one mint and one fruit, which means the format is open to both camps without anyone having to cross over. Pouch format sits beside flavour and strength as the third part of the choice, and the Mini label on the can is where that format is shown.
How Do You Know Which FUMI Can Is Which?
Each FUMI flavour has its own can colour, so a flavour can be picked out at a glance on a shelf or a desk. Colour only tells you the flavour, though, and the strength has to be read from the label, since several flavours are sold at more than one mg level. Blackcurrant at 4mg and Blackcurrant at 8mg are a fair example: the flavour match is the easy part, and the mg per pouch printed on the can settles which of the two is in your hand. A quick look at that figure before the lid comes off is a habit that serves well in a shared flat in Lille or an open plan office in Toulouse.
How Many Minutes Should a FUMI Pouch Stay Under Your Lip?
A FUMI pouch is kept in for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the user's preference. That span covers a pause on a café terrace in Paris just as comfortably as a longer stretch at a desk in Nantes or an afternoon meeting that runs past its slot. The same 30 to 60 minute span applies across the FUMI range, from 4mg to 15mg per pouch, with personal preference setting the point within it. But, the strength and the flavour remain separate choices from the timing, and both are best settled on the label before the pouch goes in.
How Does FUMI Compare With Other Snus in France?
FUMI sits in the lighter half of the snus we carry in France, where the whole shop runs from 3mg to 150mg per pouch. Every FUMI strength falls inside our Light and Medium bands, while the Strong band from 16mg to 25mg and the Extreme band from 25mg upwards are covered by other brands on the shelf. Within those lighter bands, FUMI offers breadth of flavour, with mint, fruit and mixed blends spread across four strengths. A shopper in Marseille comparing brands can line FUMI up against its neighbours by mg per pouch first, then by flavour family.
To compare FUMI with every other brand side by side, you can purchase snus online from the full collection, where each can shows its mg per pouch in the same way. The wider range of snus from every brand we stock starts on our front page, and we deliver to Lyon, Bordeaux and Nice. Starting with a FUMI flavour you already know, then moving up or down the strength ladder one step at a time, is the simplest way to explore the range.
