If you are weighing MEVIUS Option Purple 8 vs Premium Menthol during your lunch break, the short answer is: both cartons are listed at A$229.50 for a 10-pack carton, both are in stock today, and the only reliable difference is the complete written title and the SKU — SS-355 for MEVIUS Option Purple 8, SS-339 for MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8. The two purple packs photograph almost identically, which is why the Qyvaxon Image Provenance Register files the written record first and treats the image as supporting evidence. This comparison covers both records, what the photos confirm, and a two-minute pre-order check.
MEVIUS Option Purple 8 vs Premium Menthol: At a Glance
Here is the live comparison read from the WooCommerce catalogue at publication time. One carton always means 10 individual packs, and both records are in stock.

The price is identical, so price alone will not separate them. The separating fact is the written identity: “Premium Menthol” appears in one title and not the other, and each title is paired with its own SKU. If you are comparing MEVIUS cigarettes in Australia, memorise the SKU before you check out.
Source of the Image: Where the Two Purple Records Come From
Both photographs are sourced from their own product record pages and load from the WordPress media library as the main image of that record. The Option Purple 8 picture is stored at media ID 91 and the Premium Menthol picture at media ID 89. In provenance terms, each image is sourced from its own product page, so photograph and record travel together. The register keeps separate files for the two SKUs even though the packs look alike, because the image is filed under the record.

Load and Dimensions: What the Photos Confirm
Both images load successfully on their product pages. The Option Purple 8 record (SS-355) is 1200 by 1200 pixels, and the Premium Menthol record (SS-339) is 1012 by 1012 pixels. Each file carries descriptive alt text with the product name and SKU. What the photos confirm is pack and carton framing only — they do not by themselves prove which SKU is which. That is why the register logs load results and dimensions, and the title and SKU as the identity.

Identity Check: Title, SKU, Carton Quantity and AUD Price
Read live at publication time, the two records are: MEVIUS Option Purple 8 — 1 Carton (10 Packs), SKU SS-355, A$229.50, in stock; and MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8 — 1 Carton (10 Packs), SKU SS-339, A$229.50, in stock. Both cartons contain 10 packs and are available for order. The only difference between the two written identities is the phrase “Premium Menthol”, but that phrase is exactly what separates SKU SS-339 from SKU SS-355 on the register. A third purple record sits next to them in the catalogue: MEVIUS Premium Blueberry Blast Menthol Option Purple 8 (SKU SS-366) at A$238.00, so if a listing shows a purple Mevius pack with a blueberry-mint note, check the price and SKU before assuming it matches either A$229.50 record.
Catalogue Context: Mevius Inside the Qyvaxon Register
Mevius is one of seven brands on the register, and the purple Option Purple 8 family is its most visually crowded corner. Five Mevius records are live today: the two A$229.50 purple cartons covered here, the Blueberry Blast record at A$238.00, MEVIUS Lights 8mg (SS-347) at A$246.50, and Mild MEVIUS 10mg Hard Pack (SS-370) at A$229.50. The Mevius category archive groups all five in one place. The register applies the same method across every brand — the written title and SKU come first, the image is supporting evidence — and it has done so since the earlier record that traced a purple MEVIUS image to SKU SS-339. For a second worked example of the same comparison method, the Dunhill Blue vs Dunhill Red 6mg record shows how two similarly coloured cartons are separated by title, SKU and price.
How to Verify Before You Order: A Two-Minute Check
Three quick steps before you order. First, match the complete carton title and the SKU on the product page — for example the MEVIUS Option Purple 8 record (SS-355) or the MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8 record (SS-339). Second, confirm the product image loads from that same record rather than a screenshot or third-party listing. Third, check the live AUD price and stock status on the page itself; if a listing shows a different price, it is not one of these two records. Package colour alone never identifies a product — the title and SKU do. The full exact product directory lists every record on the register.
FAQ
What is the difference between MEVIUS Option Purple 8 and MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8?
The two records share the same AUD price and a similar purple pack design; the only difference in the written identity is the phrase “Premium Menthol”. On the register that phrase is what separates SKU SS-339 from SKU SS-355.
Are both MEVIUS purple cartons the same price in Australia?
Yes — MEVIUS Option Purple 8 (SS-355) and MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8 (SS-339) are both listed at A$229.50 per 10-pack carton. The adjacent Blueberry Blast record (SS-366) is listed at A$238.00.
Can the pack colour tell me which SKU I have?
No. The two purple packs photograph almost identically, so colour is not a reliable identifier. The complete written title and the SKU are the first basis for identifying a record; the image is supporting evidence only.
Do I need to be 18 or older to order from Qyvaxon?
Yes. Qyvaxon is an Australia-only adult catalogue for consumers aged 18 years and over, and delivery is limited to eligible Australian addresses.
