Lovehoney X Womanizer Sex Toy Advent Calendar (24 Piece), $813.95 $325
In case you couldn't tell from the crazed excitement in my eyes, there is something so incredibly satisfying about this 24-piece assortment of sex toys from Lovehoney. Not only is the massive haul worth over $800 but the advent countdown is specifically curated to "tantalise and tease" with each reveal, building all December long until its satisfying finish. As a Jewish girl, this was my first real experience with an advent calendar and I didn't realize how much anticipation would accompany opening up the "toy of the day," which ranged from bondage accessories, sensory toys, massagers, and of course, luxury vibrators. After opening the first day, I was hooked.

There is not a sensation or stimulation that's left out from this wide array of sex toys — BDSM exploration, anal-curious toys, and a surprisingly fun addition of a finger vibe (just slide onto your finger and buzz yourself to climactic oblivion), just to name a few. I was particularly fond of the how-to-use booklet, which described each reveal and the best way to use it (making it particularly beginner and user-friendly). But the most valuable inclusion is saved for December 24 and is sure to lead you to an XXX-mas Eve for the books. Behind the final door lies the calendar's hero product: the Womanizer Classic 2, a luxury vibrator that retails for $199.99 on its own (and officially makes this a serious steal!).

What's to love about the Womanizer Classic 2?
Upon pulling this out of the final spot in the advent calendar, I literally gasped. The suction vibrator is a staple in Womanizer's lineup that uses ten intensities of the brand's patented Pleasure Air Technology that runs from "whisper-quiet" to "you won't be able to stay quiet" for thrilling non-touch stimulation fans are obsessed with. "This is the best toy I’ve ever used. Hands down," raves one reviewer, "The gradual increase in intensity is just perfect. If you get one vibrator, make it this one." While most Womanizer suction vibrators range from three to five intensities, the Classic 2 doubles that option, ratcheting up its suction via ten increasing levels sure to blow you (and your clit) away. That's because Womanizer is responsible for pioneering the suction technology that's become a mainstay in the sex toy industry. It's little wonder it's been fully perfected twenty years after its launch.
As well as its ten incredible intensities, Womanizer Classic 2 is also famous for its redesigned ergonomic shape (which is coated in a softer-than-soft silicone) and the toy's impressive four-hour run time. Considering I was able to coax myself to an impressive orgasm within about 90 seconds, you could treat yourself to a whopping 160 climaxes before this thing even needs a recharge.
Despite Womanizer boasting the toy's high-intensity (and pretty much unrivalled) clitoral stimulation strength, I was most excited to try out the new model's exciting 'Afterglow' setting. In the simplest of terms, the clitoris is at its most sensitive immediately upon (and after) orgasming, so the Afterglow function quickly reverts the Classic to its lowest intensity, allowing you to follow your climax to the most relaxing finish, rather than an overstimulated (oftentimes) painful one. Though it took me a few seconds into my full body-clenching orgasm to figure it out (pro-tip: it's just a short press of the power button that activates this mode!), I was able to finish painlessly. If a soothing come down that sends you into a relaxing, sleepy, and sated come down sounds appealing to you, too, do not sleep on this purchase.

Why do fans love the Lovehoney Rose Clitoral Suction Stimulator?
No toy has proved that more than the rose vibrator, with over 850 pleased reviewers singing its praise. "I have never had such intense orgasms," says one reviewer. Another said it was responsible for her first orgasm in five years. "Magnificent," is a word that is thrown around a bunch, as well as many claiming it as the "best sex toy" in their arsenal.
Overhyped? Nah. This suction vibrator, which clocks in at $89.99 on its own, is a viral sensation for a reason. Though fans warn it can get a little loud (whisper-quiet is not listed among its attributes), the ten-speed and six-pattern toy will make you even louder.
Honestly, if you don't have the rose yet, purchasing this unique advent calendar is a no-brainer.
