Everything You Need To Know About The Rose Vibrator

Hey y’all, Nora Jo here to give you all the insider info on Sexyland’s Rose Vibrator, which I personally own and love! This is one of the best sex toys for her (i.e. women, AFAB people, and people with vulvas) and was inspired by the viral TikTok darling that took the internet by storm thanks to its romantic and utterly charming rose-shape design. I’ll tell you everything you need to know about what the Rose Vibrator is, how it works, and why you need one of these beautiful blooms in your bedside drawer!

Buds to Bliss: The Evolution of Clitoral Stimulation

The Rose Vibrator is one of Sexyland’s bestselling clitoral stimulators, but if you’re a sex toy newcomer or clit stim novice, you might not know what clitoral stimulators are, so here’s the lowdown.

Historically, female sexuality has been suppressed, or left in the hands of men, depriving women of their own sexual agency. It’s taken until recent times for most of society to believe women could even experience pleasure during sex. Even once sex toys for women became more mainstream after the sexual liberation movement of the 1960s, the market was mostly full of dildos or vibrators that were designed to be inserted and were all about vaginal penetration. This was because the people who were designing said sex toys back in the day were thinking about a woman’s sexual pleasure from a heteronormative perspective, which typically involves PIV action (penis in vagina), or other forms of penetration, because there’s no such thing as sex with women that doesn’t involve penetration, right?

But hey, if you’re one of the fortunate few people with vulvas who can orgasm with just penetration, lucky you! Alas, fewer than 1 in 5 women can orgasm from penetration alone and require clitoral stimulation to cross the finish line, yours truly included. Manual stimulation like rubbing or using vibration on the clitoris was our only option for a while, and for me personally, it was fine for the most part, but like many other clit-havers, I sometimes found that my body was too sensitive for direct stimulation and it was just too much sometimes. When playing solo, I would often resort to using a vibrator on my clitoris through my clothing, but that’s hard to feel sexy doing when you’re already naked and with a partner who just wants you to cum for them… 😬😬

So where does that leave us? Well, in 2014, a German company called Womanizer™ invented the first range of clitoral suction stimulators that harnesses air pressure waves to deliver indirect or ‘contactless’ stimulation that feels like puffs of air blowing and sucking against the clitoris. Since the air waves don’t actually touch the clitoris, this ensures the 8,000 or so nerve endings of the sensitive clitoris aren’t over-stimulated, and not only that, it’s a completely different sensation to vibration on its own — more on that later!

Womanizer calls this air wave tech ‘Pleasure Air Technology’ and they’re the OGs in that particular field, releasing the first Womanizer Premium (which is now on its second iteration) back in 2014, to the tumultuous applause of vulva-owners all over the globe (when their hands weren’t busy clutching the sheets that is).

Of course, the sex-toys-for-her business is a competitive scene, so Womanizer wasn’t the only player on the field for long. The massive success of the Womanizer saw the rise of the viral Satisfyer Pro 2, which came out in 2016 and provides similar contactless sensations through what Satisfyer calls Air Pulse Technology (though the principle of how it works is the same as Womanizer’s Pleasure Air Technology).

Fast forward to 2022 where TikTok has been the hot new thing for a while and everybody on it is suddenly raving about the Rose Vibrator! They say imitation is the highest form of flattery, but unlike the Womanizer and Satisfyer Pro 2 (which have long handles and quite sleek, modern designs), the Rose Vibrator paved the way for a new breed of compact sex toys for her that are, for lack of a better word, cute. But that’s not the only thing people love about the Rose Vibrator… 🌹🌹

What are the main features of the Rose Vibrator?

The Sexyland Rose Vibrator has 10 different intensities and patterns of clitoris-sucking settings that you can control with just one touch of a single button. The suction is whisper-quiet for discreet, distraction-free play, though your mileage on just how quiet the Rose Vibrator is for you may vary (like it did for me — I think this has something to do with the amount of fluid my body produces when I’m aroused, and how much of gets inside the chamber while the suction is active). The Rose Vibrator is waterproof for easy cleaning as well as fun in the shower or bathtub, and is also rechargeable via its own magnetic charger base that the toy stands upright on so it looks just as good as always. even when it’s not in use. It comes in a cute floral-inspired design that’s available in 2 colours at Sexyland: the classic shade of romantic red, or the new black bloom that is perfect for any fellow goth babes out there who want to stick to their aesthetic.

How does the suction technology of the Rose Vibrator work?

The suction technology of the Rose Vibrator works like the Satisfyer and Womanizer, featuring an open chamber that surrounds your clitoris. Inside the chamber, a thin panel of silicone is stretched over the back of the opening, and it vibrates back and forth like a bass speaker to create pulsating, fluctuating waves in the air pressure.

What does the Rose Vibrator feel like?

If you’re worried that clitoral suction-style sex toys are like vacuums, don’t worry! Even on the highest suction setting, you won't need to use force to remove or reposition the toy, and your clitoris will not feel like it needs to cling to the rest of your body for dear life.

Clitoris-sucker toys have nozzles that rest around the clitoris and use air pressure to generate suction force that doesn't actually directly touch the centre or tip of your clitoris, which is the most sensitive part of the clitoris. The vibrating air waves suck and massage together to provide a completely different sensation from vibration that people often say feels like oral sex, but in my opinion, oral sex has softer licking sensations while the Rose Vibrator and other clitoral suction toys offer a fluttering massage that feels much more focused and rhythmic.

In my experience, orgasms from clitoral suction don’t feel *super* different from clitoral vibration, but the entire experience of masturbating with a suction toy has a more intense build-up and the orgasm can feel like it lasts longer too!

Can the Rose Vibrator be used for solo play and couples’ play?

Yes and yes, though I’ll admit that I don’t usually bring out my Rose Vibrator for partnered play. If I wanted clitoral suction and penetration at the same time, using the Rose Vibrator with a penetrating partner would probably be pretty easy since the toy is nice and compact and won’t get in the way of things in certain sex positions, but when it comes to clitoral suction, I personally prefer enjoying that sensation on its own. A partner can always hold the Rose Vibrator for me, though this may not be the most exciting thing for them, and I will always have to reposition things if the toy ever leaves the optimal position since I’ll have a better idea than my partner on where the perfect position is on my body. I much prefer to hold the Rose Vibrator myself and have my partner kiss, hold, and touch me around other parts of my body and just be physically and emotionally present while I let the toy work its magic.

Tips & Tricks to Maintain Your Rose Vibrator

I’ve noticed that because of the Rose Vibrator’s carved petal design, there are lots of nooks and crannies for mess to accumulate or get stuck in, unlike sex toys with smooth shapes (but that’s just the price you pay for cute, non-standard designs). The Rose Vibrator is made from body-safe silicone that is fully waterproof so cleanup is a simple process — to clean the internal chamber, I fill my bathroom sink or a bowl with clean, warm water and run the toy while it’s fully submerged in the water. The pulsating settings help to loosen up anything that’s gotten inside the Rose’s mouth and the soak underwater also helps to soften whatever’s stuck around the petals.

After that, I pump on a bit of my foaming antibacterial adult toy cleaner and let that sit for 10–15 seconds, which is easy because the Rose Vibrator itself has a flat base to stand on its own. I use a Q-tip to massage the foaming cleaner into the toy’s chamber and around the crevices of the petals, then rinse off the cleaner under running water and pat everything dry with either a paper towel (not TP) or a clean hand towel. After that, I just stand the Rose on its magnetic charging base to power it up for my next pamper sesh!
