The With Love Rose Scent Silk Petals are small, silk material rose petals that give off an amazing scent. They are sold by Sex Toys. I can’t count how many are in here, but it fills up about 1/3 of the entire 8-inch tall plastic tube. Each of the rose petals is soft and has detailing on it. I’d estimate about a total of about eighty rose petals are sitting inside of this container. Each rose petal is about an inch in length and about an inch in width but has rounded corners and everything to look more natural.
The plastic tubing it came in didn’t seem to fair so well during shipping – it has cracks around the outside. Despite that, this tubing would still work well for storage of the rose petals, so we’ve been keeping them in there. The tube is see-through which allows you to see the rose petals, and this is made by Topco Toys so their logo is on here as well.
So what about the rose petals? They’re gorgeous smelling. Like, seriously. If I had to make a comparison to a real-life scent, I’d definitely say it smells more like baby powder than a rose scent. However, the baby powder is applied to these silk petals in the perfect amount – there’s not too much scent and there’s not too little scent either. It smells very strong when you first take them out of the tubing, but after they’ve been lying around the on the area where you put them, the scent gets relatively softened. You can still smell the scent while rolling around on the petals, but it isn’t overwhelming. It’s like a nice background scent while the two of you play.
So what about multiple uses? Well, it depends. As soon as we were done playing and had cuddled, we picked them straight up and put them back into the tubing. That seemed to retain quite a bit of the scent to them. The scent isn’t as strong as when we first opened the packaging, but it has lasted another four uses with the scent still being able to be smelled – just not as strongly. I’d imagine it only has another two uses or so before we stop being able to smell the petals without intentionally trying.
We just ended up spreading out the petals around us before we were going to be laying down to do something sensual. One of the times I enjoyed giving him a massage while the petals were laid out – the scent definitely helped enhance the entire experience which is always nice. If you get some unscented candles to burn, then your atmosphere can be ever more romantic. You could get scented candles, but I’m concerned the two scents would end up fighting over each other for a stronger scent and would make something icky.
Other ways to use this would include to have spread this out in advance to surprise your partner or to leave a trail of these along the path that you’d like your partner to take to end up finding you. Something to consider – these do require a clean-up. It’s definitely sexy to have them out while you’re doing something sexual, but you do have to go around and pick them all up after you’re done with the sexual thing you were engaging in. Picking them up is so much more of a pain than laying them down because each individual petal has to be picked up. After the rose petals are picked up, there does seem to be a lingering scent in the air that lasts for a bit, but it doesn’t seem to stay on any furniture or fabrics.
Something else to consider – some of the rose petals tend to stick together straight out of the plastic tube. This means that you want to give yourself a bit of extra time for the first time you decide to spread these since you might have to take the time the pull a couple of the petals apart. Once you’ve laid them out and pulled them apart once, they tend to stay apart.
Overall, we enjoyed our With Love Rose Petals. They have an amazingly soft scent that complements what we’re already doing without being distracting. The petals feel relatively soft on the skin and aren’t scratchy at all. We’ll be using these for sex until the scent goes away, and then afterward, we’ll probably put these to good use as a photography prop, so these will get their use.
