I’m a very sensual person, and I don’t just mean in terms of sex.
Tactile appeal is important to me in a variety of different ways.
When I was younger (and through to my early twenties) I used to bite my nails. As a teen I would bite pens right down to their nib. And now, as an adult, I still use Rubiks cubes, therapy putty, and squishy kitty toys in times of high anxiety to help give my hands something to do.
I like texture and squishy things are pretty much the best out there in terms of soothing and appeasing my nervous mind and body.
A sex toy with a squishy tip, therefore, sounded like the pinnacle of pleasure to me.
But, as an internet meme once said, “Be careful what you dream for.”
The Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator
The Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator is a delicate vibrator in almost every sense of the word.
Its dainty design is one of the most sweet and notably plush that I have seen in a while, and I have recently seen vibrators with cutesie anime ice creams on them.
What makes the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator stand out as such a dainty offering is the subtleties and elegance of its design. The golden yellow picked for its plastic control casing and battery cap is perfectly matched with the extremely light pink that is used for its squishy silicone form.
Firm ABS plastic can be felt throughout the shaft of the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator but as ou move up its shaft you can feel the bullet-like plastic shape underneath the silicone fade away in to a pretty much fully squishable bulbous head.
Alongside the entirety of this toys body are three gentle indentations which line the toy as if prompting a more streamlined sense of performance even though, in reality, they do very little. The ones on the firmer shaft aren’t pronounced nor firm enough to really be felt and the ones on the bulb are hindered by the squish to the point where they’re not exactly a dance in to the realms of texture, not by any means.
Still, both the ABS plastic and the silicone used are non-porous, phthalate-free, and completely body safe, which is exactly what you’d want from a product. The silicone used is wonderfully smooth and, again, very much fits in to the ‘delicate’ category. I can stroke this toy for ages, smooshing its head and happily running it across my body. It’s almost therapeutic.
This toy sports three different vibration intensities and then a pulsing mode, for people who like to dabble with patterns. A single button controls and filters through these patterns alongside turning the toy one and off. This button has a cherry blossom logo on it, further adding to all of the little details that make this toy a refined offering.
It is sadly not a rechargeable toy but, instead, opts for batteries, with 2 x AAA batteries lasting about 4 hours. This isn’t great in my opinion or, at least, not considering the strength of the vibrations.
When compared to many battery-powered toys now, which have really started to bring in a good punch, the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator starts so gently that your mobile phone will likely give its vibrations a run for their money (though, admittedly, they wouldn’t hold a candle to its rumble).
The second vibration setting has more potency, similar to a phone, and the third is notably penetrating, but only if you hold the shaft to your body. As for the squishy tip (ie. the main selling point of this toy) it remains incredibly gentle and never really manages to transfer the vibrations well.
This left me very frustrated with this toy as I could feel there was more strength in it but could never quite attain the right angle or positioning to access the maximum potency that it had to offer, all the while knowing that potency wasn’t too much to start with.
For a power queen like me this is an issue, and is the biggest downside with this toy. I could not climax with this toy. Not a single orgasm. I won’t lie to you and say that I did. It just didn’t happen.
For someone who really does love the subtle approach and having a really intimate, gentle, and purring exchange with their vibrator then you really can’t fault the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator. It does just that and the only issue is that what it’s offering isn’t something that my body has ever been interested in. For others, it might be the dream.
My only other real issue with the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator was that its indented cherry blossom on the button and an ‘Iroha’ logo makes this toy slightly harder to clean but considering this toy is waterproof that’s pretty much water off a duck’s back.
The toy itself also manages to be lint-free and, with measurements of 1.37 inches in diameter, 5.82 inches in total length, and 4.5 inches in insertible length it’s easy for people to play around with penetration using the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator, though I personally found its design to be better suited for external attempts of play.
Iroha suggests that the tip makes insettion easy but do be careful of the fact that it weeble wobbles a bit when inserting. This doesn’t hinder use but it is something to consider and, again, is a personal preference in many regards.
Final Thoughts
Overall the Iroha RIN KOGANÉ Silicone Waterproof Clitoral Vibrator is a lovely little vibrator but its gentle form is followed by gentle vibrations and pretty much secures this toy’s position as one for those who like things to be timid and tame.
This isn’t a bad thing in the right conditions. It definitely prompts users to take a more subtle approach to their body and play and helps create a real sense of self-empowerment through subtlety, but it does nothing for people like me who are loud and product with their vibrations and play style.
If you’ve read through this review you likely know if this toy is for you or not. It wouldn’t be one I’d recommend to a person such as myself but I really can’t fault it in terms of catering to the audience it’s intended for and thing it will make the right user feel like they’ve finally discovered a kindred device.
