An orgasm in under 30 seconds? Sign us up.

TikTok might not be the place you’d immediately think to go to for sex toy tips. A healthy chopped salad recipe? Sure. The latest viral trend? Absolutely. But sex toys…? Perhaps not so much.

But before you return to your trusty wand vibrator, hear us out – as with unlikely animal friendships and incognito ex-stalking, sometimes social media delivers, and in this instance TikTok is on to a winner. It’s called ‘the Rose,’ a (you guessed it) floral-shaped clitoral suction toy that wouldn’t look too out of place on your mantle.

You might see the rose toy described as a vibrator, clit sucker or pleasure air toy – but they all amount to the same thing: a clitoral suction toy. Around 7cm tall, it looks like a stemless rose with a hole in the middle of the petals that cups your clitoris (or nipple – no judgement here) and sucks on it. It’s made of super-soft, medical-grade silicone – it’s a pleasure just to hold – and is uses magnetic USB charging, so there’s no bumpy wire ports to distract.

There’s no one specific brand that the good people of TikTok are championing, but in the UK your best bet is the Rose Toy Official on Amazon or sex toy connoisseur Lovehoney’s iteration.

And for those who are asking – yep, it’s waterproof, so shower sex is fully on the cards.

The rose toy uses air technology to emulate the crème de la crème of cunnilingus – think suction, vibrations and a fluttering, licking sensation. Sounds good, no? It has 10 settings to flick through, from a steady rumble increasing across six intensities, to four different buzzing patterns.

What sets it apart from other clitoral suction toys, apart from its good looks, is its sheer intensity – as demonstrated in a number of videos by plunging the toy into water.

Fully charged and ready to rock? Follow these simple steps to get the best from your rose toy.

Let’s just say there are some sex positive queens (and kings) out there sharing some real authentic reviews. Shiny-faced and looking mighty pleased with themselves, users are flocking to TikTok to describe their experiences with the rose toy.

In one video with 3.9 million views, the slightly shell-shocked uploader claims she came in 30 seconds with the rose, hilariously branding it ‘disrespectful,’ as she didn’t have time to find herself a good video to enjoy alongside it. Meanwhile the comments below are filled with users claiming the rose works so fast it’s ‘stealing’ their orgasms from them, and warnings to put a towel down, should you choose to indulge yourself.

One user with 1.2 million views claims she came five times in five minutes (go gurl), while another warns not to be fooled by the toy’s rosy exterior – because, as this user attests, it will have you ‘squealing like a pig.’

You’ll also find a number of how-to guides: many users suggest not going in cold – give yourself a warm-up first, particularly if you’re sensitive down there – and taking a few breaks during use if it all gets a bit much (spoiler: it probably will).

However, some users who've purchased rogue roses have complained of faulty charging and pneumatic drill levels of noise, so make sure you buy a legit product.

All right, no more stalling - let’s get down to it. Does the rose toy live up to the hype? We were lucky enough to try the Lovehoney Rose Clitoral Suction Stimulator, but we have it on good authority that all rose sex toys perform the same way.

Firstly, the nitty gritty. The toy we tested had a host of practical features we loved:

So, what about the sensation? To be honest, it takes a lot for us to part with our trusty Lelo, but in the name of scientific research we bravely stepped up. We started on the lowest setting and built our way up, and my god, it is powerful. Almost immediately the magic started to happen, and we had to put it through a number of tests to try out all the functions (tiny violin). I guess what we’re saying is it gets you there, and it gets you there fast. We can’t say we were timing it (way to kill the mood) but trust us.

The combination of airwaves and pulsations is truly mind-blowing, and you’d be forgiven for thinking you were at the mercy of some oral wizard. Of course, if you’re a gal who needs a bit of g-spot action too, you’d need an extra toy or one that delivers both clit and g-spot stimulation.

Rest assured we can safely say we’re as addicted as the rest of TikTok – for something so unassuming looking the rose toy sure does deliver. And from now on when we say bring me flowers, this is what we’re referring to.
