We only turn 40 once in our lives and, as Sigel approached this landmark, I began looking for something that would make this a memorable one. I wanted something soft, sensual, and romantic. I found all of this in the Treasure Trove Gift Tin by Kama Sutra. I ordered it in strawberry flavor since that's his favorite and was pleased to see that it's actually strawberries and champagne flavored!

The kit arrives in a heavy cardboard box, perfect for storing keepsakes in when the items inside are removed. It is brick red, spring green and quite elegant. The items inside are nestled snugly in corrugated cardboard strips, which we recycled. The smell when the lid was removed was intoxicating, sweet with a lovely rich undertone reminiscent of champagne.

The kit comes with a full sized bottle of strawberries and champagne flavored oil of love (4 fl oz). It is packaged in a lovely glass bottle with a cork stopper. I recommend storing this bottle on a glass tray or something similar if you have wood bedroom furniture since the cork will sweat the oil from inside the bottle if it gets warm and the oil will get everywhere.

It's all natural ingredients are pretty basic, nothing to raise warning flags: Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Water (Aqua/Eau), Sucrose, Citric Acid, Sodium Saccharine, Flavor (Aroma), Yellow 6 (CI 15985), Red 40 (CI 16035), Blue 1(CI 42090).
I wouldn't use this as a lube due to the high sugar content and people with diabetes should use caution. The oil has a sweet, subtle strawberry flavor with a hint of alcoholic tang. It is best used as a drizzle to flavor body parts rather than a massage oil as it's gooey and sticky rather than smooth and fluid. It washes cleanly away with soap and warm water and doesn't stain sheets.

The next item we removed from the box was a full sized bag of strawberry flavored honey dust. The dust arrives in a plastic bag with a twist tie closure and the whole thing is enclosed in a red silk like bag with a black drawstring. We chose to leave the dust in the plastic bag so that it won't go stale or get ruined with moisture.

With the natural ingredients there is nothing to raise concern: Corn Starch, Natural Honey, Fructose, Strawberries and Champagne flavoring. Diabetics should use caution as this has a high sugar content but it should be fine in small amounts. The taste of the honey dust is amazing! It is sweet and melts on the tongue without leaving an overly sticky feeling on the skin of your partner. A beautiful feather applicator is included in the kit and it is made with the same care I have come to expect from Kama Sutra. It has a wooden handle and the feathers are firmly attached to it.

The final product included in the kit is a small (1.7 fl oz) tube of Strawberries and Champagne Stimulating Gel. This stuff tastes amazing! It has a high content of menthol which is the stimulating ingredient that leaves you with a minty strawberry flavor. The ingredients are: Water, Sucrose, Glycerine, Alcohol Denat., Polysorbate 80, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum, Flavor (Aroma), Menthyl Lactate, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Saccharine, red 40, Red 33. A quick internet search revealed that none of the ingredients are harmful in small quantities and provide a slightly tingly effervescing gel. It feels cool and bubbly when rubbed gently around the clit or nipples and makes a blowjob mind blowing! It doesn't numb the mouth or throat but does contain a high amount of sugar.

None of the items need to be stored in the refrigerator and all of them look elegant on a bedside table or dresser.

The night was unseasonably warm and the breezes curling in from the open window were fragrant with early spring flowers. The bed was circled with softly glowing lit candles and the gift tin was sitting in the center of the bed. After a long hot bath, Sigel joined me in the bedroom feeling well fed, clean and relaxed. He opened the box and examined all of it's contents before deciding that the honey dust was where to start. I let the feather drift pleasantly over his chest and belly before dipping it into the dust. I trailed it over his nipples and followed with my tongue. He was in heaven!

We experimented with all the products ending with the tingling gel in a blowjob that left him gasping for air and ready to drift off to sleep. I wiped all traces of the oil, dust and gel off his body with a warm towel, covered him up and kissed him good night. It had been the best birthday he could have wished for!

This kit was probably the best gift I have given to Sigel for his birthday. The oil was sweet and while it wasn't the best for massaging it was great for playing the game 'secret spot', where he would put a couple of dabs on his body wher ever he wanted to be licked and I would have to find the spots. Add a bit of honey dust and mmmm mmmm good! The gel was a perfect cap off to the sensual experience and we've recommended this kit several times to friends and family. We have yet to hear a complaint!
