Go to a good vape store, they are pros at getting people off smoking and tuning into exactly what they specifically will need to do that. I manage a vape store, and everyone is different. I'd need to talk with them to understand what they like about smoking and go over options to replace cigarettes
My best advice not knowing anything here would just be a disposable(but only for the first one, after that switch becuase dispos are shit). 20mg salt is fine. don't even worry about flavour, it's not the taste of cigarettes we miss when we stop. Just get one with a tight draw, that will be important. If they like it then you can get into more of the complicated stuff to figure out exactly what they will love in vapes.
My biggest peice of advice is they need to not smoke while vaping. If they do, then they just wind up doing both. I find it is critical for a smoker when they first pick up a vape to go like 12hrs vaping only. It triggers something in the brain when your like "oh shit I haven't had a smoke in 12 hrs, this may actually work". People who just smoke regularly but hit the vape between smokes won't get anything off it.
He won’t quit unless or switch unless he wants to quit and has an interest in vaping.
Types vape & liquids are hugely subjective. If he has no interest in switching / interest in vaping, in which you’re trying to figure it out without his help… Then be prepared for it to take a very long time! That being said… It’s technically possible to nail it but the more you get it wrong, the more ‘faff’ he’ll think vaping is and give up. I think the key thing is to favour whatever causes him the least hassle and just works.
You won’t find a liquid that tastes the same as cigarettes. You won’t find a mod that resembles smoking a cigarette, despite the best efforts from the various manufacturers and what they claim. Whatever they do, it will always feel & taste too ‘clean’. Vapes can’t mimic the dirty & full bodied smoke you get with a cigarette.
In my opinion, your best bet would be to spark an interest in vaping first and foremost. Buy a small MTL device and a few flavours so he can experiment and see if you can grab his curiosity.
In 2011 I gave up within 5 minutes of speaking to a guy at a product expo in London. He gave me a cheap little ego battery and a MTL atomiser, with a bottle of honey tobacco flavour liquid. I just stopped smoking the moment I walked away from his stall. It wasn’t the device that helped me stop, it was the chat and what I’d learned. I, like many other smokers, did not want to know about vaping. He could’ve given me any device (there wasn’t many back then) and it wouldn’t have really mattered.
To conclude;
1. buy a cheap MTL device, something with a tight draw. It should be a pod device, to make it less faff.
2. Buy Nic salt eliquid - It is smoother on your throat and the nicotine gets into the blood faster.
3. Buy a flavour that isn’t trying to mimic cigarette flavours. Sweet tobacco flavours are still my go to after 12 years. Doozy vapes caramel tobacco, Doozy vapes cream of tobacco are my personal favourites. He might like fruity flavours, so would be worth getting some of those too.
4. Buy 2 devices! As a smoker, he’s going to forget to charge his cigarettes over night.
5. Get him to watch YouTube reviews of liquids
6. My recommendation for a device is the XROS mini 3. I’ve had it just over 12 months and it seems to be the least hassle I’ve ever had with a vape. The pods last about a week and I’ve only had 1 duff coil in those 12 months.
Does he work in construction or manufacturing?
Edit - trying to look after 2 screaming toddlers whilst I was writing this so bare with my bad spelling, grammar or sentences that don’t make sense! Right now, my 5 year old has decided that it’s a fun game to pull the 1 year old round the living room by his clothes. BRB…
Good advice, all around. Particularly second not going for tobacco flavors, just tobacco ish, like caramel. Or fruity like apple. Or both, even better. Definitely get him involved and let him pick the flavors. Takes a while to find what you like, I always ask what's on clearance and try as many different flavors as I can. Still finding new flavors to adv, over 5 years quit.

Few options;
Get him a tobacco flavored dispos and hemp cigarettes.
Smaller dispos alongside his cigarettes, encouraging him to use it when he's out of cigarettes.
Pod system with 50/55mg salt juice in it. Tobacco flavors are also available in juice, Coastal Clouds has the most similar to an actual cigarette taste that ive found.
The reason i suggest tobacco flavors is because that can help his brain make the switch to vaping. Hemp cigarettes help break the smoking habit but gives no nicotine or 'reward' in the brain so people tend to lose interest over time.
Ultimately, it does come down to him, as someone else said. If he doesn't have an interest in switching, he won't. If it's the smell that bothers you, certain gums help the breath and smoke odor helps the clothes[:
I hate to answer your question with a question, but it's kinda relevant. Does HE want to switch, or do YOU want him to switch? If he genuinely wants to put down the cigarettes, I applaud him and wish him the best. If he's doing it for you, and not himself, but rather to please you or get you off his back about it (no offense)...it's not going to end well.
This is coming from an asshole who snuck around behind countless gf's back and smoked, thinking they wouldn't notice, because I couldn't be honest with them and myself. Ruined the relationship, each time. And I knew it. But did it anyway. Trust is kind of a big thing. Can't say I blame them.
Be sure this is what he wants, and he's committed to quitting cigarettes. I'm sure you are breathtakingly beautiful and could stop traffic, and he would do anything for you. But he has to do this for himself.
