Reviewing the Lelo Enigma

My Personal Experiences with Lelo Enigma

Is my Clit Too Basic for Sonic Waves?

I decided to test out the Lelo Enigma as a total clit sucker newbie. I was super confident and thought I came prepared, but I had no idea what I got myself into! Let me just say the first time I used the Enigma; it didn’t look like a romantic scene from a Lelo commercial; it was more like a funny video of a cat getting its tail accidentally sucked by a vacuum cleaner… Well, Lelo didn’t lie when they said it’s a POWERFUL massager! The pulsations felt very intense from the start, and as a person who loves powerful and super rumbly vibrations on my clit, I was left very confused. I thought that perhaps I was too basic for such a technologically advanced sex toy, but I am very glad I gave Enigma another shot because I absolutely fell in love with it after another round!

Powerful orgasm? Mission accomplished!

After my first attempts left me sad and dry, I decided to change my approach. This time, I spent more time giving myself longer foreplay action, and I prepared much more lube. I didn’t instantly try to position the suction head right on my clit, but I moved it around to stimulate the larger area. Then I placed the head on the right spot for a few seconds and changed it again to give myself time to get used to pulsations. Once I felt ready and went all in, it was all worth it! I never came this hard, this quickly! The stimulation was very deep and so powerful, even in the lower settings. The Lelo Enigma surprised me this time, and my clitoris is very thankful to me! After I learned how to approach the Enigma, it was amazing every time I used it. The G-spot bulb is so smooth and flexible that I had no trouble sliding it in and reaching my spot, no matter my position.

Room for improvements?

I am a big fan of the Lelo Enigma, but a few things could have improved my experience. I wish the Enigma had dual controls so that you could control the pulsation and vibrations separately. I also found the edges of the head a bit weird; if they were more rounded, they would’ve been way more comfortable to use.

My take on the Lelo Enigma’s design

Lelo Enigma My take on the Lelo Enigma’s design

The Lelo Enigma brings the feel of luxury to the bedroom! I absolutely fell in love with the pink and purple gradient look on matte black silicone. It feels more sexy and edgy in comparison to regular pink or black sex toys. When it comes to practicality, I am really happy with the Lelo Enigma’s well-thought-out design. The g-spot bulb is very flexible and easily adjustable, and the clit stimulating head is placed on a perfect angle to reach the clitoris and provide you with an amazing orgasm! I only wish the opening was a bit bigger with more rounded edges. Right now, the stimulation feels more pinpointed, which feels super powerful in one spot, and I am one of the people that would prefer gentler stimulation in the bigger area. But, if you want a toy that will give you a knee-shaking orgasm within minutes, the Lelo Enigma deserves an A+!

The Lelo Enigma: User Convenience

Lelo Enigma The Lelo Enigma: User Convenience

The Lelo Enigma is super easy to use. It has 3 function buttons with a travel lock to control the vibration/sonic wave patterns easily and decrease or increase the intensity. Thanks to Enigma’s flexibility, hitting the G-spot is very easy; however, it might take a bit to find the right setting and position for your clit. Keep in mind that this toy has only one motor, so if you want to increase the G-spot stimulation, your clit will feel it too! And, as usual, Lelo toys start off with the highest settings, so check it out before you want to use it on your vulva, or your clit will make you scream, but not in a good way…

Quality Assessment

Lelo Enigma Quality Assessment

The Lelo Enigma is absolutely beautiful, and the silicone feels amazing! With Lelo sex toys, you can expect only high-quality materials and extra durability that will guarantee big O’s for many years. The vibrations and the sonic waves are very strong. For me, as the total clit suction newbie, they were even too strong. So if you are a big fan of very deep and intense stimulation, you won’t be disappointed! The sound, on the other hand, is not very pleasant. It’s not the most discreet toy, and the vibrations are not the quietest I experienced. So is the suction head, and with a bit of lube, it kind of sounds like gurgling sometimes. But that’s what is expected with all clit suckers. So, I guess this is the price we have to pay this price for a good sucking action!

Is it worth it?

Lelo Enigma Is it worth it?

The Lelo Enigma is a great quality and very durable sex toy. The price might seem a bit high, but Lelo’s sex toys are known for their high quality, powerful motors, and beautiful designs, and Enigma definitely delivers all of the above. In addition, Enigma provides not only deep pleasure but also everything about this toy screams luxury. Starting from the beautiful packaging, exciting unboxing experiences, and the toy's quality is definitely worth the price!

My take on the Performance

Lelo Enigma My take on the Performance

As I expected from Lelo, the Enigma is one powerful sucker! The vibrations and the pulsations are so intense they will make you think that you’ve left this planet and found clitoris heaven! The G-spot bulb is super flexible, so you won’t have any trouble finding your sweet spot, and its size is not intimidating but big enough to bring a lot of pleasure. The sonic waves are very powerful to me, and even the lowest setting made me cum in only a few minutes, which was never achievable with a regular vibrator. My only problem is the one motor that controls both parts (the internal arm and the suction head). I wish I could control them separately, so I can add more vibrations to the G-spot while giving my clitoris more gentle stimulation and slowly building up the sensations. This is not the most discreet toy I own when it comes to sound. Especially, the suction mixed with wet lube is very specific, and I found it quite disturbing.

Breaking Down the Packaging of the Lelo Enigma

Lelo Enigma Breaking Down the Packaging of the Lelo Enigma

I can honestly say that unboxing sex toys is one of my guilty pleasures, and unpacking Lelo’s products is sooo satisfying! I love the classy but very sexy snake pattern on the box and how they beautifully displayed the toy on a soft material behind a see-through plastic window. Let’s not forget that Lelo Enigma came in with some goodies! A small pack of water-based lubricant, a manual, a USB cable, and a storage bag (thank God!) are hidden on the lower level of the box. The Lelo Enigma’s packaging is super classy and luxurious, and as the unboxing expert, I have no complaints!

Reviewing the Material Choices and Care Guidelines

Lelo Enigma Reviewing the Material Choices and Care Guidelines

The Lelo Enigma is made of medical-grade silicone, which is non-porous, 100% body-safe, and very easy to clean. It’s also fully waterproof, so you don’t have to worry about water getting in the charging spot or the mouth on the suction head, because it’s also protected. It’s a great bath, buddy, so replace your old yellow duck with something more pleasurable. Overall, the cleaning took me only a few seconds. The residue came off right away, and Enigma was as smooth as new.

Special feature

Lelo Enigma Special feature

SenSonic™ Technology provides deep and intense clitoral stimulation without direct contact with the skin. Some people compare it with the feeling of oral sex, but I wouldn’t go that far. It’s definitely very pleasurable and makes you orgasm within minutes, if not even seconds. It’s way different than vibrations because it’s gentler, but feels incredibly deeper and more powerful. The Lelo Enigma’s special feature is made for those who enjoy clitoral stimulation and are looking for something specifically for that!

1. LELO Enigma vs We-Vibe Melt

The LELO Enigma and We-Vibe Melt are both high-end clitoral stimulators designed for women who enjoy intense pleasure. While both of them deliver satisfying sensations, they differ in some important ways.

The Enigma offers eight different vibration patterns, while the Melt does not have any pre-programmed patterns. Instead, it relies on the user to create their own unique sensations by adjusting the intensity levels. This can be an advantage for those who want to experiment with different sensations and customize their experience.

One of the most noticeable differences between the two is the design. The Enigma is an external stimulator that is designed to provide clitoral stimulation, while the Melt is a suction toy that uses air pressure to create a pulsing sensation around the clitoris. This means that the Melt provides a more indirect stimulation, while the Enigma delivers targeted vibrations.

In terms of materials, both the Enigma and Melt are made from body-safe silicone. The Melt is fully waterproof and can be used in the shower or bath, while the Enigma is only water-resistant and should not be fully submerged.

Finally, the price point is another significant difference between the two. The Enigma is priced at the higher end of the market, while the Melt is priced more affordably.

2. LELO Enigma vs Womanizer Premium

The LELO Enigma and Womanizer Premium are both high-end sex toys designed for women who enjoy clitoral stimulation. While they both deliver intense pleasure, there are some key differences to consider when choosing between them.

One of the biggest differences is the type of stimulation they provide. The Enigma uses eight different vibration patterns to stimulate the clitoris, while the Womanizer Premium uses patented Pleasure Air Technology to create a sucking and pulsing sensation around the clitoris. This can be a matter of personal preference, as some women may find one type of stimulation more enjoyable than the other.

Another difference is the shape and size of the toys. The Enigma is designed to fit snugly against the clitoris, while the Womanizer Premium has a larger, more bulbous shape that can be more difficult to position. However, the Womanizer Premium does come with several different sized heads, which can make it more versatile.

In terms of materials, both toys are made from body-safe silicone and are fully waterproof for use in the shower or bath. The Enigma is USB rechargeable and has a battery life of up to 120 minutes, while the Womanizer Premium has a magnetic charging port and a battery life of up to 240 minutes.

Finally, the price point is another key difference between the two. The Enigma is priced at the higher end of the market, while the Womanizer Premium is priced slightly lower.

3. LELO Enigma vs Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation

The LELO Enigma and Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation are both high-quality clitoral stimulators that use different methods to achieve intense pleasure. While they are similar in some ways, there are some key differences to consider.

The Enigma uses eight different vibration patterns to stimulate the clitoris, while the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation uses pressure waves to create a pulsing sensation. This can be a matter of personal preference, as some women may prefer one type of stimulation over the other.

In terms of design, the Enigma is more compact and ergonomic than the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation. This can make it easier to hold

and maneuver during use. However, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation has a larger head that can cover more surface area and provide more intense sensations.

Both toys are made from body-safe silicone and are fully waterproof for use in the shower or bath. The Enigma is USB rechargeable and has a battery life of up to 120 minutes, while the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation has a magnetic charging port and a battery life of up to 30 minutes.

Another important difference is the noise level. The Enigma is known for being relatively quiet, while the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation can be louder and more noticeable.
