Satisfyer Sexy Secret

The Sexy Secret from Satisfyer provides sensual stimulation on the go: just attach the vibrator to your undies with the handy magnet so you can stimulate yourself with powerful, whisper-quiet, vibrations, and spice up your everyday life. The ergonomic shape means it fits perfectly to your body contours, lying directly on the clitoris and providing you especially intense stimulation. The surface, made of body-friendly silicone, is especially soft, providing you with smooth fun with just a few drops of lubricant.

This portable vibrator can also be controlled easily on the go: you can operate it intuitively with the Satisfyer Connect app. Control the vibrations of this panty vibrator using your cell phone or your Apple Watch, or let someone else control it for you from anywhere in the world (or across the dinner table!).
