Pheromones

Pheromones buying guide

This page lists the pheromones we stock. If you already know what you want, the products above are the whole range. If you are still choosing, the sections below cover what actually separates one from another - written from the questions customers ask us most, not from a manufacturer brochure.

Water, silicone or hybrid

Water-based is compatible with every toy material and every condom and washes out with water, but absorbs and needs reapplying. Silicone-based lasts far longer and works in water, but degrades silicone toys. Hybrids blend both.

If you own one bottle make it water-based. If two, make the second silicone for anal and shower use with non-silicone toys.

Ingredients worth avoiding

Glycerine can contribute to yeast infections in people prone to them. Numbing agents sold for anal use are actively dangerous - pain is the signal that prevents injury, and removing it removes the warning.

Warming and tingling formulas work through capsaicin or menthol. On sensitive tissue they can burn. Test on a wrist first.

Osmolality and pH

Lubricants far above the body own osmolality draw water out of cells and can damage the lining that protects against infection. For vaginal use the useful pH is around 3.8 to 4.5; for anal use closer to 5.5 to 7.

If a product irritates consistently, the formulation is wrong for you rather than you being unusually sensitive.

Condom compatibility

Oil-based products destroy latex condoms within minutes. Water-based and silicone-based are both safe with latex and polyisoprene. If condoms are part of your practice this is the most important line on the label.

Polyurethane tolerates oil but is less elastic and more prone to slipping.

Frequently asked questions about pheromones

Which should I buy first? Water-based is compatible with every toy material and every condom and washes out with water, but absorbs and needs reapplying. Silicone-based lasts far longer and works in water, but degrades silicone toys. Hybrids blend both.

What material should I look for? Glycerine can contribute to yeast infections in people prone to them. Numbing agents sold for anal use are actively dangerous - pain is the signal that prevents injury, and removing it removes the warning.

How do I clean and store it? Oil-based products destroy latex condoms within minutes. Water-based and silicone-based are both safe with latex and polyisoprene. If condoms are part of your practice this is the most important line on the label.

Will it arrive discreetly? Yes. Every order ships in plain unbranded outer packaging with a neutral sender name, and the billing descriptor is equally anonymous. Nothing on the parcel or the statement identifies the contents or this store.

Is the stock figure real? Yes. Stock shown reflects units actually held by our US distribution partners rather than an estimate, which is why some items show low numbers instead of a permanent in-stock badge.

What if it is wrong for me? For hygiene reasons intimate products cannot be returned once opened, which is exactly why this guide exists. Message us before ordering if you are unsure and a person who knows the range will answer.

Common mistakes when buying pheromones

The most frequent error is buying for the fantasy rather than the reality - the most extreme option on the page, bought first, usually ends up unused in a drawer. The second is ignoring material in favour of shape, when material decides how a product cleans, how long it lasts and how it feels against skin. The third is underestimating how much a proper cleaning routine matters to whether something stays pleasant to own.

The fourth, and the one that costs the most money, is buying the cheapest version of something to try it out. A poor example of a category teaches you that you dislike the category, when what you disliked was a bad motor, a porous material or a badly finished edge.
