Let’s face it. There are two reasons you’d want to use a vibrator: because you are a gadget lover who can’t imagine anything, including sex, without a little technology involved; or because you just want to have an orgasm, and fast. But with the Crave Vesper, there is a third possibility.
I tested out the Vesper in a variety of situations, and I’d say it’s more of a “share with your pal to enhance sexy time” toy rather than a “goddamn it just give me an orgasm in five seconds because I have like ten minutes between meetings and… whew” type. For the latter, you’ve always got your trusty Magic Wand or Silver Bullet.
But if you want to bring some beautiful tech into an already-sexy situation, there is nothing better than this subtle little vibe. Plus, tiny motors make everything better. It is a known fact.
The battery life on the Vesper is great. It will definitely last you through at least two play sessions — even if you are taking your time.
At $US70, the Vesper isn’t cheap — but that’s a fairly reasonable price for a high-end vibe, especially one that actually works as advertised (a rarity among stunt toys like this). It comes in three colours: gold, rose gold and silver, each with matching necklaces. I wasn’t thrilled with the quality of the necklace chain that came with mine, but that’s easily swapped out.
Also, a word of warning. The Vesper is what’s known to aficionados as a clitoral vibrator. That means it’s for using on the outside, not the inside. It’s way too slim to do much for your vadge — and ferchrissake don’t stick this up your butt. It’s tiny and easily lost and heats up, which are all Very Bad Things for your colon and will land you in the emergency room.
Like
It works really well as a cool necklace, and is subtle enough that nobody will know you’re wearing a sex toy unless you want them to.
Three speeds plus pulse make this a fully-functioning vibrator.
Localizes sensation in a pleasing way.
Stainless steel is easily cleaned and sterilized.
No Like
The necklace chain is flimsy, so you’ll want to replace it with something nicer.
The Vesper is advertised as completely quiet, but it’s still possible to hear it buzzing across a medium-sized room. Of course, if you’re using it in the bathroom at a nightclub, it will seem completely quiet. So carry on.
Should You Buy It?
This is the kind of vibrator that’s perfect for adventurers who are brazen — or for ones who are subtle. For the brazen, it’s great for impromptu public sex (what — you haven’t done that?), naughty parties, and showing off. But for the subtle, wearing it can be a way to signal to your partner that this nice dinner will end with a very special kind of gadget benchmarking. Wearing it without anyone but your partner knowing is also its own kind of delicious reward.
This is the kind of vibrator that would make for a fun present to share with your toy-loving partner, especially if you want to surprise them with the extra powers hidden in the cool necklace you bought.
As I said earlier, I wouldn’t recommend it as your emergency go-to orgasm maker. Sure, it will give you desired results — but it’s not really designed for speed and efficiency. So buy it for fun and delight, but don’t expect to keep it in your nightstand for everyday use. [Crave]
