well goodness Gracious

I love the multiple vibrations of Gracious. That is one of the features I look for when choosing a vibrator. I especially like not focusing on which pattern is next. Being pleasantly stimulating-ly surprised adds to my pleasure. I do prefer stronger vibrations, though. Exceptionally quiet & waterproof features are an added bonus for me. And when I say exceptionally quiet, I mean exceptionally. Gracious is a well designed high performance vibrator that lots of users can enjoy.

Use

Elegant Gracious of the Petite Couture collection comes to us from California Exotics. It is a high quality silicone vibrator. This sophisticated high performance massager has 7 functions and is waterproof. This is a great vibrator for those new to multiple functions.

Gracious is a g-spot vibrator. Beginners will find it a nice introduction to multi-function vibrators. Couples can enjoy the innovative massager during any play time. Run it over all her or his erogenous zones. Exceptionally quiet, Gracious can be used in any living environment even in a shared bedroom.

You can use Gracious during sensory BDSM play. Tie up your partner and taunt them with it. Wear a mask and let your partner pleasure you. And you know what else you can do? Spice up a shower or a bath any time you choose. But, be sure to not use anally since there is no flared base.

Material / Texture

Gracious is made of the high quality Japanese medical grade silicone. Silicone is the safest adult toy material. It is hygienic, latex free, phthalates free, non toxic, hypoallergenic, and non porous. And it quickly warms to your body temperature and retains heat. Vibrations travel well through silicone too.

As I glide Gracious across the inside of my arm there is a drag/pull on my skin. This is easily resolved by using a bit of lube. The silicone is pliable and soft. It's also unscented. No scent of some rubber materials or other unpleasant odors are present.
    • Flexible
    • Not porous at all
    • Smooth

Design / Shape / Size

Designed with your pleasure in mind, Gracious is soft and flexible. It is seamless and smooth. There are 4 sides with rounded edges to define each side. The tip is even squared off with a slightly curved head. The very end is a slightly rounded flat surface. And the shaft is flexible yet firm. Also, the massager is ergonomically designed for your ease of use.

Elegant controls are located at the base which also functions as the handle. The controls are set in a recessed space and 2 power buttons are located inside this area. There is a dedicated on/off easy push button. You can always power off Gracious no matter which setting you are using. A second easy push button controls cycling through the 7 functions. And, an LED light lights up when the vibrator is powered on as well as with each cycle.

the dimensions are as follows:

Length: 7 3/4"
Length Insertable: 4 3/4"
Circumference Tip: 2 3/4"
Circumference Shaft: 4"

The battery cap is unusually designed. A round cap twists to the right and then pops off. Once the cap is removed you place 2 AAA batteries inside. Replacing the cap requires aligning the correct nubs to the specific grooves and twisting it closed.

I don't see Gracious as a discreet vibrator. But that doesn't mean you can't take it on the go if you choose. It will fit in a bag taking up little room. The narrow tip helps make insertion smooth. I don't feel the squared off shape of the tip once inserted, though. I think the tip is designed to match the modern appearance of the shaft. I don't easily feel the squared off edges either. Although the vibrator is flexible, it's still firm enough to massage my g-spot and vaginal walls or any pleasure spot on my body. I find I don't need to apply pressure for stimulation. Since it's ergonomic, I can easily maneuver it. The circumference is perfectly designed to fit those new to vibrators and advanced users that do not want a lot of girth, like myself.

Functions / Performance / Controls

Gracious has 7 delicious functions of vibrating, pulsating, escalating, and surging. Some of the functions also consist of multiple speeds and intensity. These functions are of average powerful except for the first function of vibrating which is weak. Gracious is not as powerful as some of my other vibrators, but, nonetheless, the vibrations can easily be felt by most users.

There is lots of variety in the settings of Gracious. And the motor is exceptionally quiet. Plus, the vibrations are located in the tip of Gracious. Oh and are they wonderful there! The vibrations in the handle are very minimal. I thoroughly enjoy the pleasurable vibrations of the massager. They are very stimulating externally.

the functions are as follows:

1. Vibrating Low
2. Vibrating Medium
3. Vibrating High
4. Escalating
5. Pulsating
6. Pulsating Fast
7. Surging
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use
    • Lots of variety in function

Care and Maintenance

Clean up is simple with Gracious. Since it is waterproof and made of silicone, you can wash it with warm soapy water submerged. Or you can use toy cleaner or cleaning wipes, both available from Edenfantasys.

Do not store Gracious with other silicone materials to prevent possible damage. This is also why you should not use silicone or even oil lube. Waterbased lube is always safe to use. Also, I prefer to store separately to prevent possible bleeding or melting of other toy materials. I just store all my toys in a baggie, pouch, or original packaging to simplify storage. Be sure to remove the batteries to preserve their life. And as always, store away from heat and sunlight.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store
Follow-up commentary
I have come to no longer enjoy Petite Couture Collection Gracious. I was still hoping that at some point I'd be able to get the edges of the tip to really give my G-spot a good massage, consistently. The end or tip just isn't firm enough. And, the vibrations need to be stronger for me. All in all, I originally thought that it would really work out to join my great vibrators collection. It hasn't.

    Thanks for the follow-up. Sorry you have come to dislike it I have found the Extase Zenith is a great g-spot vibe with a decent price.
  • Contributor: unicorn64
    Thanks for the review and follow up. I think I got vibrating, pulsating, and escalating figured out. But not surging.
  • Contributor: edeneve
    unicorn64, to explain surging: several short bursts followed by one long vibration.
  • Contributor: PassionCpl
    Thanks for the review. I'd never even noticed this vibe before.
