Buzz on Vibes

Let me introduce you guys to the P.S. Paris Style vibe from Mode Design. This is a discreet little sex toy QueenCatAdultToys.com sent me to review. Well, actually I received 4 of them. I got to keep my choice of color, and the others I’m giving away, so if you’d rather not read through my thoughts on this one, feel free to click here and go straight to the giveaway post.

The P.S. Paris Style is available in 4 different colors: purple, blue, pink, and black. Only the manufacturer calls the colors lavender, sky, cherry, and dark. Each one varies in shape and texture, but they’re all about the same size and come packaged in a plastic insert inside a windowed cardboard box.

I opted to keep the black one, as the curved shape and wavy texture along the back of the shaft appealed to me. The silicone on these vibes has an incredibly soft surface that not only has very little skin drag, but it also doesn’t attract dust and lint nearly as much as other silicone toys. I was able to really test that with a dark color, and I am very impressed!

There is a single-button control on the bottom of the battery cap that turns the motor on and cycles through the 4 speeds of constant vibration. The vibrations start out at a moderate intensity, and get quite strong, if a wee bit buzzy, at the highest setting, but the motor is nice and quiet. This silicone has the most heavenly soft surface I’ve ever encountered, which is awesome as it feels incredible and keeps the top speed from having too much surface buzz.

P.S. Paris Style runs on 4 LR44 watch batteries, which are included, thank goodness. All you’ll need to do is remove a little paper insert before using this sex toy for the first time.

I was a little disappointed in the lifespan of the batteries. I didn’t time how long it took to drain them, but I only got 4 uses out of this vibe, plus a few seconds with it turned on while I made the video, before the batteries went flat. But that’s being really nit-picky, and to be fair, I left the batteries in the toy between uses, so from now on I’m storing it without the batteries to see if that makes a difference. I’m otherwise very impressed with the performance of this vibe.

The tip is firm with a little bit of give on the surface, and the middle of the shaft is nice and squishy. In fact, it’s actually very bendy and flexible, so this isn’t one to use for firm G-spot pressure, but I think it’s fantastic for trusting and all kinds of external stimulation. While the discreet size is ideal for travel and those who prefer smaller toys, I hope one day they make them available in larger sizes. That would be awesome.
