Gifts

The best erotic gift is the one the other person would not buy for themselves but will actually use. That rules out the loudest thing in the shop and rules in the well-made basics: a massage kit with oil and a candle, a couples game, a set with a small bullet and a blindfold. Those get used on an ordinary Tuesday, which is the point of a gift.

For someone you know well

If you know what they already own, buy the next step up rather than another of the same: the wand instead of the bullet, the app-controlled version of the egg they have, the one from Lelo or Fun Factory instead of the one from the supermarket rack. Look in the category their toy sits in for the model one price above it.

For someone you do not know that well yet

Stay with things that are clearly a present and not a statement. Massage oil and candles from Shunga, a kissable body powder, a game with dice, or a set with several small things in one box so that at least one of them is right. The Secret Play box does that for fifteen euros, the Shunga kits for forty to seventy. A gift card is the honest way out if you would rather let them choose.

Discreet by default

Every parcel ships in a plain box with no logo and no sender name. Nobody at the door or on the doormat knows what is inside, and the box gives nothing away if it waits on a hall table for a week.

Delivery times

Orders placed on a working day leave within 24 hours. Portugal usually takes one to two working days, Spain one to three, Germany and France two to three, Belgium two to four, the Netherlands three to four. Free delivery starts at fifty euros in Portugal and Spain and at seventy five in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France, and the cart shows the exact amount before you pay.
