CalExotics French Kiss Review: Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir? ♪

Experience

Normally not into super wet kisses.. but god damn! I'll deal with these sloppy soaking wet kisses any time...

The French Kiss is definitely my favorite CalExotics toy thus far as it's just thoroughly enjoyable overall. The only confusing thing about it is that it claims to have a travel lock feature but there's no instruction on how to enable it. I feel they are considering the fact that the power button needs held to turn the device on rather than just quickly pressing it is the travel lock, but I'm not sure. I will say that that's still a feature I was already happy about since it means I can't accidentally bump the thing to turn it on or off while in use or in general. The "worst" thing about this toy is how loud it is if you just hold it in your hand, especially with the sucker head on... For such a small device it sounds so obnoxiously aggressive, but then when it's in use is way quieter.

Not only was/is this toy fun to use on its own, but at one point I got so intensely aroused that I surprisingly grabbed the Utimi Lavender to use with it as a penetrative toy for an awesome toe curling experience! Setting 3 is quite intense... I find I'm super squirmy and unable to keep it in place as much as I really want to in the moment. Settings 1 and 2 are where it's at when it comes to riding out the fun.

The heads are super easy to swap and super easy to clean, more so than the INYA Rose with all its little crevices and nooks. I even enjoyed some of the pattern settings despite being more inclined to use a consistent vibration setting.

Its currently on the charger waiting to be used again when I finish typing this review up, unless it finishes first.

Packaging

The package for the CalExotics French Kiss is a beautiful two toned gradient design that's kind of warm and inviting. The front is a clear plastic window showcasing the product itself against an artistic style background, found on the cover is the company name, the product name, an appropriate lipstick stain, and few tidbits of information. The back depicts a picture of the product with 6 bits of information shared in a diagram fashion, 7 more handy bullets of information off to the side, and 4 boxes features 4 different languages and bits of info. One side of the box is beautifully blank, while the other has a bio of the company and a picture of the founder.

Cute Marketing

The company was considerate enough to wrap the product in a plain white bag when shipping it so you can feel safe initially opening your package among prying eyes. Love the font and playfulness of the phrase "You've never been kissed like this." written above the product picture on the back. Playful marketing is highly enjoyable!

Much like the packaging of the CalExotics Bullet, I find this style to also be on the second/third tier of starting to own my sexual nature publicly. In fact, though the product itself is more sexual looking in nature than the Bullet, I find the packaging itself to be more aesthetically pleasing.

What's in the Box?!

Inside the package: The product itself, the 2nd head attachment, a charger, a quick instruction guide and a larger instruction manual.

Once again CalExotics keeps its contents as simple as its packaging, but I'm still highly disappointed in the lack of a carrying pouch for the product. I will say I'm thankful they include a charger for the products that need it despite not caring to consider including batteries for others.

Ease of Use General Sense - Each has something that makes it awesome

• CalExotics French Kiss - Ergonomically friendly, easy to operate, has memory retention incase it's accidently turned off, heads are easy to change and easy to clean, and is an excellent clitoral tickler/sucker

• INYA Rose - Ergonomically friendly, easy to operate, intense sucking settings, and hard to clean due to petal sections

• Satisfyer Mission Control - A smidge cumbersome due to playful design, easy to operate the multiple settings, not penetration friendly, decent clitoral vibrator, and great sucker

Overall winner by Personal Preference - Right now I really like the ticklish head of the French Kiss, but as far as suction feature goes, it's a tie between Mission Control and French Kiss.
