The Awesome Blossom by Doc Johnson is a glass dildo that lives up to its name. It boasts a pretty flower encased in the bulb head, which is great for G-spotting, as well as fine ridges that please rather than irritate. A flared base makes it anal safe and the long length make it suitable for those who want more than the average dildo.



You will love the Blossom if:
1. You're looking to start a glass collection.
2. You already love glass!
3. Like a long, lengthy dildo.
4. Enjoy bulbed G-spot stimulation rather than angled.
5. Love moderate, but regular texture.

You will not like the Blossom if:
1. Glass is not your thing.
2. The sensation of ridges or mild 'juicing' is not pleasurable.

...That's it. Likely, however, these are things that you already know about yourself. If you're not sure, Awesome Blossom may be able to make up your mind for the positive and be a great toy. Other pluses that the Awesome Blossom brings: like all glass toys, waterproofness, easy clean up and maintenance as well as the likelihood that this dildo will last longer than any other non-glass toy in your collection. It's the best bang for your buck and it'll look pretty and feel awesome doing it.

The Awesome Blossom is of course, made of borosilicate glass. This kind of glass is made of silicone dioxide complexed with boron -- this makes the glass temperature resistant and shatter proof, which is why it's used to make bakeware and scientific glassware. Borosilicate glass is also called Pyrex.

Of course, since glass is an unforgiving material and since this is a very solid dildo, I'd recommend starting slow and erring on the side of gentleness when using this dildo internally on anyone, including yourself. The long length of the Awesome Blossom also makes gentleness and imperative, since it will reach the cervix easily.

The Blossom is not compatible with a metal o-ring harness, as it's made of glass and excessive force could cause the glass to chip or break. However, the wide glass base could make it compatible with a leather or cloth harness -- go nuts!

Ridges:
Awesome Blossom is one of the best examples I've found of texture that isn't too extreme, but isn't weaksauce or itchy. The ridges are perfectly spaced (i.e., tightly) to give a kind of juicing effect, which is intensely pleasurable. If you're looking for a moderate foray into texture but either dislike or find extreme texture distracting or painful, the Blossom is for you.



What with the embedded flower and the green, spiralling ridges, I wouldn't say the Blossom is a realistic toy. But it's certainly gorgeous.

G-spotters tend to deliver in one of two ways: either they have a great, large, bulbed head that may be felt on the G-spot while performing internal contractions like Kegeling or G-spot toys have dramatic angles that exert direct pressure on the G-spot. And of course, some toys do both. The Awesome Blossom does both gently. While the head of the Blossom is substantial at 1.5" in diameter, it's easily inserted with a healthy dollop of lube. Certainly this substantial head make the Blossom an awesome G-spotter. It also has an ~20 degree bend to it, creating that angle that I mentioned.

Since the Blossom doesn't carry too extreme a curve or too extreme a bulb, it's a great fit for beginner users who want to ramp up to something with dangerous curves like the Pure Wand or something with a huge bulb like the Jopen Comet G.

The Size:
Awesome Blossom is kind of long and it's certainly un-ignorable in terms of largeness. I wouldn't call it discreet mostly due to this size, but it's also not obscene. The longer length makes it a little hard to hide and probably poses some difficulty if you choose to travel with the Blossom.

Great for Cervix Orgasms:
Those who dislike cervical stimulation should pass on the Blossom -- however, those ladies who, like me, adore some cervical stimulation will love the Blossom. Its long length and the hard material make it perfect for this function. For me, longer thrusts just before orgasms with something of a very firm material trigger some of the most full-body, firework orgasms.

The Wide Base:
I love a glass toy with a full base, not just a wimpy hemi-circle. The full base on the Awesome Blossom makes it totally anal safe and acts a super handle for any angle of penetration, whether you're holding on to it or your partner. If you enjoy twisting actions or rocking motions, the Blossom also has you covered since you can better hold onto it.

Glass is great to clean, since multiple options are open to you and there are no motorized components to damage. Feel free to simply wipe down your glass toy with toy wipes, soak it in a 10% bleach solution, boil it, run it through the dishwasher or simply wash by hand with warm soap and water.

Glass is also compatible with all kinds of lubes -- water, oil, or silicone. No patch test required, simply be sure to not use a lube in the same encounter as something else that incompatible -- i.e., if you plan to use condoms later in the night, avoid using oil-based lubes on your glass toy if that's what you're starting with.

Packaging and Storage Options:
While the Awesome Blossom came with a really colorful, eye-catching box, it's not very discreet and it definitely didn't include storage options. It's just a hard, plastic, bendy, blister pack. Yuck. Even though glass is safe from discoloration, dust, or touching other toys and having reactions, I like to keep my glass toys in soft bags. If you prefer to display your pretty glass toys, then this isn't a problem for you -- rock on.
