Toko my yoko, if you know what I mean.

Fabulously scented, horribly flavored but absolutely wonderful to apply and use! Absorbs nicely into the skin, leaves it feeling silky smooth. Coats toys and skin well for sexual use and many positions. Can withstand friction for long periods of time all the while never losing it's absolutely intoxicating scent! I adore this water-based lubricant with it's multitude of uses and am finding new ones each day. From anal to solo, this is a lube I can recommend with confidence.

Use

I like using Toko Aroma Formula for a little extra lubrication for a multitude of things. Such as; for my clitoris during masturbation, for my vaginal sex toys, for vaginal and anal fingering, and during vaginal intercourse. It isn't quite thick enough for use with anal toys, in my opinion. But, I like a thicker lubricant. I need a little time to ease an anal toy inside me, though. If you are accustomed to using somewhat thinner lubes for anal toys,then go for it! For a water-based lubricant, it provides good friction protection for a lot positions and movements. I recommend this lube to anyone wanting a natural-feeling, all-around water-based lubricant.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

I found this lubricant to feel more silky than slippery or velvety and a little thicker than the other water-based lubes I have seen. Having said that, this lube is still quite runny. When I put a small drop onto my hand then held it vertically, the lube ran down my hand easily. I was curious about this because when it was sitting on my hand it seemed almost gel-like. I love using this lube for clitoral and vaginal stimulation with toys. It leaves my skin feeling silky smooth, though after a while it tends to do this weird.. sticky/tacky thing. Fortunately, if you just add a tiny bit more or a tiny bit of water the problem is solved within seconds. When I rubbed it into my hand and wrist it absorbed nicely but left that odd sticky feeling. I have extremely sensitive skin and I tend to react to anything that doesn't absorb completely, I don't like anything left over. This isn't a moisturizer either so that was to be expected. Either way, I high recommend this lubricant.

Taste / Aroma

The scent is very strong and delicious without even squirting any out, however when you taste it it's not as pleasant, it's actually quite nasty. After it's absorbed into the skin it improves and leaves your skin with a soft scent of whatever kind you chose (for me it was melon/mango). But, again the taste was undesirable. Even the tiniest amount tastes like rotten fruit or something, my taste buds are very sensitive though. It says it's supposed to have a delicious candy fruit flavor, but the smell was more dead on than the flavor. The aroma is lovely and delicate almost, lingering nicely. And mine smelled exactly like I thought it should, like fresh melon and mango.

Performance

You do not need to use a lot of this lubricant, just a drop goes a long way. Just be sure you've applied enough for you and your partners comfort level. Or just your own if using it solo for masturbation. The great thing about this lube is it is not gender specific by any means. So, men and women can use it equally without worry or concern of how it'll work for them. It is a water-based lube, so do try and remember to not use it in the shower as it will wash it away.

The only cause for complaint is with vigorous action it can oxidize quickly and leave you feeling somewhat tacky or sticky. Upside to this problem; if you're a woman who gets wet easily then you have no worries. If you are not one of those lucky women then a little more lube or a bit of water and you're back in business. Fortunately, it does last a long time before this happens. I'd say about an hour.. give or take.
    • Absorbs into skin nicely
    • Feels natural
    • Reapply often

Packaging

Extremely simple packaging! It came in a plastic bag with a couple other things I had order. The actual packaging for the lubricant was a simple perforated plastic around the cap to keep everything closed. No instructions included, but there is information on the back of the bottle. It is rather discreet as it just says TOKO in large letters and underneath that says that it is a lubricant but in very small letters. Travel friendly, definitely. I have yet to have a leaking problem and I don't always keep it sitting up right, especially if it's on my bed with me.
    • Can be opened with one hand
    • Discreet looking packaging
    • Easy to use / dispense

Experience

When I first received Toko Aroma Formula in the mail, I didn't think that it would work well. I loved the way that it smelled, though! I'd never used a water-based lubricant before and I was very wary of trying it out. It seemed from everything I've ever read it's always, or almost always, touch and go. So, I sat it aside and continued to chew on my lip in thought on when I'd try it out.

So, the next day after a shower I decided to try it out with two of my toys. I was happily surprised at how well it worked for me. It's very smooth and almost silky with how it glided onto the toys and onto myself. It stayed for quite a while and by then I didn't need lubricant to keep going to the finish line. I did taste test it for curiosity and was deeply disappointed. The lube smells so terrific and I thought for sure from the description that it would be equally pleasing to the tongue. I was sadly mistaken, it has a horrible flavor but thankfully doesn't have much of an aftertaste. It's a wonderful product otherwise and I plan to keep on using it until I wipe the bottle out.

Follow-up commentary
I still don't like the flavor of this lube but otherwise it smells great. And it's a wonderful water-based lubricant and does the job wonderfully. Though you may have to reapply more frequently than desired, but it's not too bad. Maybe once or twice reapplication in a 30 minute/40 minute period of time. Which, for being a water-based lube of this caliber I'd say is pretty good.
