Fruity Flavoured Durex Condoms - Sept 2004
As part of Sex Toy Testers Harvest Festival, Pharmacy2U.co.uk sent us some fruity flavoured Jonnies - Orange, mint, strawberry, and banana. Were the finger licking good or were they rubbery? Our testers were sent off to see if these durex would make them feel fruity.

What was your first impression of the item sent to you? - the look and feel of it and your assumptions of how it was going to perform?
I assumed it would do its job as it was made by Durex, a company to trust
What was the item like in action?
Well, not sure why banana flavour. I guess if you were not in a relationship you might want to use it in oral sex, But all we use them for is to stop me getting preggers! I am assuming it worked lol
Did the item make you feel sexy?
Not really. Its a condom
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
Made us laugh because it was sent as a harvest festival item
Any other comments?
no, difficult to review this one, as a condom is not a toy!
How could this item be improved upon?
not really
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
Yes
Do you have any hot tips for useage with this item?

Mint Flavoured Durex Reviewed by Littletulip
What was your first impression of the item sent to you? - the look and feel of it and your assumptions of how it was going to perform?
Well, it looked like a condom so I expected it to perform like a regular condom would! I have to say that the very bright green colour didn't really do much to heighten my enthusiasm at first.
What was the item like in action?
I was right about the colour! Once on the penis, it made it look a slight pukey green colour, not terribly appetising! However, what I didn't initially realise was that the condom is flavoured. Having tried flavoured condoms in the past, I have found that they do little to disguise that horrible latexy taste and always leave you with a bitter aftertaste in the mouth. So, edging my lips nervously towards it didn't do much for my husband's libido it has to be said. I am delighted to report however that it was actually very nice! The flavour was minty, but tasted more like mint chocolate than make-you-gag toothpaste minty. Yum! I took quite a liking to it and didn't have any sort of latexy/rubbery tastes at any point whilst using, which allowed me to enjoy it and get quite enthusiastic about my task. Much to the delight of my husband who was still trying to get over the colour...but it didn't take long for him to forget about it!
Did the item make you feel sexy?
Because I actually enjoyed the taste and found it pleasant, I was somewhat enthusiastic in my ministrations which certainly made my husband feel sexy. Does that count?
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
My husband didn't like the colour much and I think on the whole it was a more pleasurable experience for myself than him since he didn't get to taste it and prefers his BJs without condoms! However, having told my sister about it, she wanted to know where she could buy them, so there must be a market for them.
Any other comments?
As far as flavoured condoms go, I think this has to be the best in terms of realistic flavours with no horrid aftertaste.
How could this item be improved upon?
A nicer colour would be good!
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
Yes, specifically to my mint-loving friend!
Do you have any hot tips for useage with this item?
Um, try it with chocolate sauce?

It was a Durex, therefore, should be strong enough to take any sort of
action.
What was the item like in action?
Well for a bit of variety, we used your
DIY tips, and, created and Ice Cock Dildo.
Did the item make you feel sexy?
Neither, not unsexy nor sexy.
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
Certainly got me ready for action.
Any other comments?
I understand why flavoured condoms, but, seriously, who
actually uses them????
How could this item be improved upon?
If this was used by gay men, I presume
that a beer flavoured version, might be appropriate.
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
See no reason not to.

If your going to fill
the condom and freeze, don't overfill and make sure it freezes on a flat
surface, otherwise, you'll get "ridges"

I felt giggly and sniffed the packet, of course i couldn't smell anything, I was really keen to see how the little yellow thing tasted. Wouldn't it be great if cocks tasted like banana lolly pops without the help of flavoured johnnies :)
What was the item like in action?
In action well it performed as you would expect a condom too and it filled the air with its fruity smell but I didn't think the flavour was very strong and sucking rubber isnt overly nice
Did the item make you feel sexy?
It made me giggle, it made him feel sexy, maybe he had images of me ravashing his tasty banana as if I was starving and this had been the first thing I had eatern.
He was keen to get it off and be sucked naked
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
It was a giggle - and although a little inapropiate, I couldn't resist calling him banana man
Any other comments?
I think flavoured condoms are a great giggle, just for a change. I think also they help to make the putting on and wearing of condoms a little more fun and sexy. I think they are also brilliant for people who can't bring themselves to suck cock for whatever reason, because it provides a barrier and it doesn't taste like chewing on an elastic band
How could this item be improved upon?
Stronger taste please
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
Yes I would
Do you have any hot tips for useage with this item?
Ride him wearing it and then ask if he can taste it, if he says no tell him the taste is further up and that he tongue has to go deeper! What a brilliant scam, you could have him down there for hours! Wish I had thought of this whilst testing

i thought a condom!!!! i don't use them, as i am in a longterm relationship, then i realised it was a flavoured condom, so i thought hmmmmm never tried one of those before.
What was the item like in action?
Not really keen on condoms really, don't feel the same, the taste of the strawberry was ok, better than the plain condoms anyway.
Did the item make you feel sexy?
It made me giggle, it made him no

just a normal condom in a half clear packet..but it was red .no mention on the packet that it was strwberry or if it was a safe or fun condom although i'd guess it was safe
What was the item like in action?
smelled good but was not ribbed or anything so nothing special.. A little on the small side and although it smelled of strawberry it didn't realy taste of anything
Did the item make you feel sexy?
As much as a condom can but was fun having it put on.

Now here's the funny bit ....
This was the 2nd item i received from sex toy testers... Having left my husband a year ago to be with my partner we are now blissfully happy... our exs have since got together .... I thought they were trying to be smart ...sending a condom wrapped in bubble wrap through the post ... After stomping stamping and screaming the penny dropped ... I haven't owned up as to where it came from It's not a happy little setup as u can imagine ... a little bitter and twisted to say the least. Just assumed it was one of their many little games...
I happened to get a yellow one ... I'm assuming it was lemon!?! I popped it in the post right back to them ... thought they were pretty bitter and twisted... if the cap fits ...
What was the item like in action?
if we ever talk to them i'll ask!
Did the item make you feel sexy?
It probably did....
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
I'm sure it was a quite surprise to them....
Any other comments?
Maybe i'll get around to tasting one someday ...
How could this item be improved upon?
a condom laced with popping candy ...
