Not being a fan of condoms, nor needing to use them often, it always becomes a challenge for me to decide which ones to buy. Typically I go by recommendations but this time I had none, so after staring at boxes and probably looking to other customers like I was making the biggest decision of my life, I chose this brand, because based on the description, it seemed like something that both my partner and myself could enjoy! I also wanted to make sure that we got something large enough for him to wear so that he wouldn't feel confined or restricted, and these seemed to be our best bet!

These condoms are made of latex, and so of course if you do need to use extra lubrication, you will want to use appropriate lubricants that are not oil based, as they will break the structure of the condom down, causing it to become defective and leading to unwanted pregnancy, or risk of transferring STDs. You will want to use either a silicone or water based lubricant, and of course if you are unsure, many lubricants list on the back whether they are compatible with latex condoms or not.

Upon opening the pack with the condom in it, the first thing I noticed was the strong smell of latex, similar to what you would experience with a latex-based paint, used to paint designs or costumes onto your partner. I also noticed that the condom had a more slippery feel to it than most condoms, due to the lubrication covering the condom itself. It provided much more lubrication in the packet than had other brands I'd tried in the past.

On occasion I will pull one of those fancy moves, the kind where you slip the condom onto the penis with your mouth. Typically, we do this with flavored condoms only, but once in a while I would try it with a regular non-flavored condom as well. Usually the taste doesn't bother me too much, but I will warn you, this time it was an extremely bitter, strong flavor in the lubricant and I would not recommend trying it, if you are the type of partner who likes to orally place the condom on your partner!

The condom itself fit well, being that it was a great deal larger than most of the other ultra-thin brands out there, which typically tended to be the problem with finding condoms was finding a brand that offered both proper sizing and little feel of the condom itself being there. The head itself was more rounded and did offer a bit of extra room once applied completely, and allowed a comfortable feeling while being worn. Another feature that this condom offers is single-ribbing at the base, which once being worn, thins out so that it provides an added amount of pleasure for her, but still feeling natural.

Once the condom was placed, I popped a mint in my mouth (due to the taste from the condom) and began to tease my boyfriend a little bit with a feather tickler, just to increase the anticipation!

The first thing I thought once we actually began to have sex, was my questioning whether the condom had broken! My concern was because it really felt like he wasn't wearing one at all, and I was worried that the latex had been too thin and it had burst upon him entering me! He must've had the same concern, because as much as we wanted to continue, we both thought it wise to check! I was not on any other form of birth control, and so of course this would've been a major concern, but there it was, still intact!

As we continued, getting more and more into it, I was able to enjoy myself as I would without a condom at all! We both managed to enjoy our intimate moment with this condom, and after we both came, I realized that this condom was like no other I'd tried in the past! Usually, while using a condom, either my partner or I will have trouble reaching an orgasm without involvement of toys of some sort, but this time it was almost like sex without the condom!

Though I am not a huge condom fan, these are still my pick when it comes to a condom that isn't going to make it feel like a sock is being worn on my guy!

A few weeks ago I was on some antibiotics, so my birth control method was at risk, so these did come in handy. I already knew I liked them, so it was a safe bet!
