An assembly for a vapor provision device includes a reservoir for storing source liquid; a liquid conduit for delivering the source liquid from the reservoir to a vapor generator for vaporizing the source liquid; and a liquid capture element in liquid transfer contact with at least a portion of the liquid conduit between the vapor generator and a part of the liquid conduit that receives liquid from the reservoir, and including an absorbent structure providing a higher capillary force than a capillary force of the reservoir.
