Couture compagnia - double ended dildo by Cal Exotics - review by Angel deSanguine

This double ended dildo is 13 1/4" of soft, squishy, almost plushy black silicone that has a velvety feel reminiscent of fully matte silicone but with less drag. There is a full inch difference in circumference between the narrow parts of the shaft (measuring in at 4 1/4") and the wider parts of the shaft (measuring 5 1/4") which is felt quite clearly when thrusting. These peaks and valleys are not abrupt but are definitely noticeable and are quite pleasurable when coupled with the raised swirls. This dildo is not overly textured and the swirls are not rough or sharp but give slightly when in use so as not to cause any discomfort, only pleasure.

I cannot get over how squishy this silicone is! It feels like it is a silicone sleeve over a core of... something. I'm not sure what, but it's soft and squishy as well. For a range comparison, it's not as plush as O2 but is more plush than the Fun Factory Curve. Because this dildo is silicone, it is more firm than jelly dildos, making it fight against being bent in the hard U shape required for double penetration. I did notice when bending this that in the center of the shaft there is a 2 inch long very firm section that does not have any flexibility at all. Bending the shaft creates stress points on the velvety silicone covering it and I am almost positive that these points would become weak and possibly break through if the shaft is bent repeatedly at a hard angle so keep this in mind if double penetration is your intended purpose.

I did not purchase this with the intent to share with anyone other than possibly my husband however, at 13 1/4" in length, this is shorter than quite a few of the traditional style double ended dildos. If you are used to a longer shaft when sharing a dildo of this type there will be a learning curve but it can easily be done. Lube is not absolutely necessary when using this toy however it certainly enhances the overall experience- just remember to stick to water based lubricants so you do not ruin your squishy shaft of deliciousness! This dildo cleans up quite easily with warm water and soap or, if you are sharing (either with another person or swapping between anal and vaginal) either use condoms (a rubber band or something similar can be used to assist in holding the condom onto the shaft if you find it slipping off with use and then disposed of with the condom) or sterilize using a 10% bleach solution, boiling or running through the dishwasher (top rack only, no detergent, please!)
