A Florentine Dream

This is a big, mean, gorgeously made flogger that gives a unique blend of thud and sting like nothing I've experienced before. It's harder to control than daintier floggers, but definitely worth the effort of learning. The only downside is the less than gender neutral color choice.

Use

This is a long, heavy, well made pink flogger. Meaning... that this toy may have a limited target demographic (namely those who like and are experienced in the heavier aspects of BDSM and also like pink) while I am not sure how large this demographic is, I can assure you that I'm a member of it.

Again, this is long, both heavy and stingy... so if you're not used to flogging or being flogged this may not be the ideal flogger for you, it's more of an advanced flogger. It's for those who like a mixture of sting and thud when it comes to receiving, and for those, again, who know what they're doing in terms of giving.

Mostly this is best on the buttocks being too heavy and not exact enough for smaller more fragile areas.

Design / Craftsmanship / Size / Material / Features

This is a 32' inch long flogger, the tails are approximately 22' inches long, about the same length as the tails of the fulfill a fantasy flogger (also by Ruff Doggie). Each tail has a broad rounded tip, and the tails are all sort of... elongated tear drop shaped giving this flogger a very interesting unusual look and feel. The handle is sturdy, leather braided over wood, shiny black with the matte pink the tails are made out of, the design of the handle is alternating stripes of pink and black leather that form a sort of long wide checkerboard (I'm not explaining that very well) in any case it's well balance and comfortable to grip but quite heavy. It also features a lovely braided hanging loop making it very easy to store. The leather is thick, heavy and somewhat stiffer than other floggers I've used, making it quite formidable. The color as a whole is a sort of mauve pink which isn't lovely, but works fairly well for the price and quality of the flogger.

Performance

This is an unusual flogger, it has a really nice mix of thud and sting, and the wide slightly stiff tails (and I do mean wide, these are BIIIG tails) combine to make a fairly unique flogger, with a sensation that's all its own. It's a little harder to use than say the fulfill a fantasy flogger (a flogger EF seems not to carry anymore). It's very sturdily made, and the sting/thud makes it a beautiful toy for heavier BDSM scenes. I really enjoy it used florentine style (a technique where two floggers are used) in combination with the fulfill a fantasy flogger for the unique mixture of sensation.

The tails are stiff, and it's a weighty flogger (meaning you'll put some effort into using it) but the results are glorious and it leaves lovely lovely marks on the behind of the recipient.

Care and Maintenance

You really don't want to get this particular toy wet, and being untreated porous leather there's really not a whole lot to do with it...
    • Easy to store
    • Hard to clean

Experience

Again, I really like this in combination with the fulfill a fantasy flogger for florentine (damn that's a lot of alliteration) the comparatively light fulfill a fantasy in combination with this monster is just... a unique pleasure unlike any other flogging I've experienced. My partner and I love this (though she's less than pleased about the color)
Follow-up commentary
This is a luscious flogger, it holds up very nicely to use, and although it does have a bit of a learning curve it just gets better with time. It certainly gets used less than some of our other floggers, it's large and heavy and seems to be brought out on occasions where we want something a bit showy... or in contexts where the uniqueness of this particular toy is useful (we love taking it to play parties as it never fails to draw admiring comments)

    I just added this to my wishlist and now I think it'll be put on my "well maybe someday list" since you said it isn't for beginners. We're actually looking for something a little lighter for ball play.

    I would suggest perhaps the flogerella in pink would be suited to your purposes

    Thank you for this review, I really loved the look of this one and would very much like to add it to my toy collection. My girl has a love of the thud and less so for the sting. I think, from this review, that this would make an excellent flogger for her...
