Toko aroma formula - water based lube by Shunga Erotic Art - review by dezzydezire

You want a lube that smells like candy, tastes like candy, and stays silky smooth to the lickable end? If so then the Toko Aroma Formula is a perfect choice. Toko is amazing for oral sex with either a male or female partner. You can also use this lube for many other things. Anal play, maybe not for thrusting but to help inserting a plug or probe not to mention Toko covers up that notorious booty smell associated with anal play. This water based lube is safe for use with condoms and remains silky smooth for long periods of time. Unlike most flavored lubes Toko Aroma is sugar free and does not get as sticky as others.

If you have sensitivities and allergies the ingredients may not be the best. Though Toko Aroma is free of petroleum and petro-chemicals it does contain glycerin and paraben. For those with concerns I will list the ingredients for your viewing pleasure. Aqua, Glycerin, Propylene, Glycol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Aroma, PEG 5M, Sucralose, Methyl paraben.

Toko Aroma is so smooth and silky feeling on your skin and stays that way a long time. If it starts getting tacky or feeling like it's drying out just use a bit of spit or water to revive it. I personally do not feel it drying out for a long time, but it depends what exactly were doing. This lube is a bit thicker than expected for a water based lube and in many ways reminded me of a silicone lube. Though it is thicker than normal it is still a bit runny and can roll down your body making a mess if your not careful. If it does spill it leaves a spot on the sheets that we have found a wet wipe cleans up nicely, though if you don't want your bed smelling for days you may want to wash them. Unlike most flavored lubes this formula is not gummy and mixes oh so well with with the natural juices of your body. After play there is a slight film left over but not greasy or sticky in any way, it kind of leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth with a delicious scent. If you do not want to smell yummy all day long you should wash it off. I love that this product does not get all sticky and greasy when it dries and it does not irritate my skin.

Shunga Erotic chose some excellent flavors for the Toko Aroma Formula. The six flavors they chose for this product are Strawberries & champagne, Cherry, Fruit, Mango/Melon, Tangerines & cream, and Grape. I love anything grape flavored or scented so that is what I went with this time and could not be more pleased. On opening the bottle I was welcomed with a mix of Grape Fanta and Grape Bubble Yum making my mouth water instantly. After smoothing a drop on my skin the smell was just as strong and made me very happy I could eat it too, but the flavor was not as strong as the smell. The flavor was a light sweet taste with no icky aftertastes or artificial sweeteners, just a light hint of grape soda. The flavor on my tongue only lasted about a minute but the smell lingered for several hours. Even after lapping up every drop and waiting hours my skin was still velvety smooth and smelt of delicious grapes.

We were amazed at how awesome this lube worked for vaginal sex and the amount of time it lasted before needing a reapplication. After sex it left both me and my partner smelling lickably delicious and tasting just as good. Though Toko Aroma performs like a silicone lube don't get fooled and think it would be fun for anal sex. As far as we have taken this lube anally was gentle fingering during foreplay and oral, it would not hold up for hard thrusting. Though Aroma performs like a silicone it is water based and does not hold up in the shower or tub as it washes away so easily. Even though this lube is body safe I would recommend cleaning your lady parts due to the glycerin and parabens causing UTI and yeast infections. Toko cleans very easily with a little soap and water, or simply with a wet wipe.

For a bottle of lube the Toko Aroma bottle is very discreet and could be mistaken as a bottle of massage oil unless you look closely. The label has very pretty japanese art on the front at the top it says Toko in large lettering, under that is printed lubricant in small letters. The lid is an easy one handed flip top for quick application. When closing the lid be careful to close it tight as it may spill if it tips or is laid down. We store ours in a small ziplock bag when putting it in a drawer or for travel.

I love that this product is sugar free. Being sugar free not only makes this product great for those with diabetes but also sugar has been known to cause yeast infections.

We have adopted this lube as one of our top favorites. We find that we rarely have to reapply with this lube and it tastes great! My husband has even given me short back massages with this lube leaving me all silky smooth, tasty, and smelling great. Toko Aroma Formula earns five stars from me.
