When someone asks me to recommend a sex toy, I always ask this question: minimalist or maximalist? I don’t mean the design, but the type of stimulation.
There are what I call “minimalist” options designed to stimulate one pleasure zone at a time (such as an external massager for the clitoris or a dildo for the G-spot), and there are “minimalist” options that stimulate multiple zones simultaneously “choose. It’s a matter of personal preference, and it’s no coincidence that the two most enduring models over time are the classic Rabbit, which stimulates both the clitoris and G-spot, or the Magic Wand, which focuses intensely on the clitoris.
ENIGMA series
According to the Dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy, a mystery is “a reality, event, or action that cannot be fully understood or that is difficult to explain or understand.” And I don’t think it’s a coincidence that LELO’s Enigma toy is shaped like a question mark.
Our pleasure, the pleasure of those of us with vulvas, has been a mystery for centuries. It’s not that women didn’t try to take it back, it’s that they were ignored or suppressed by history. Even today, older generations are still exploring the clitoris, an organ whose only function is to give us pleasure.
But this mystery, this question, this mystery is getting closer and closer to being solved. More and more of us are embracing self-pleasure to understand ourselves, explore and awaken ourselves. Little by little we unravel the clues that form it, the triggers that activate it, and the catalysts that drive orgasm. For me, the Enigma series has always been another way to connect threads and experience the fun from origin to climax.
concept
The goal of the Enigma series is to provide us with the ultimate, immersive and enjoyable experience. It’s ideal for those who are already familiar with erotic toys and want to go a step further and explore the hidden aspects of their pleasure – corners that have yet to be discovered.
Enigma toys share a similar concept to the bunny model: internal and external stimulation, a powerful and all-encompassing package for those of us who enjoy enrichment, but with unique features.
design
These three Enigma models are very similar and difficult to tell apart at first glance. Their question mark shape consists of two ends: outer and inner.
The external end is the same as LELO’s best-selling product Sona 2 Cruise (sonic stimulator). The inner end houses an arm whose function varies depending on the model. It is curved with flat edges and adapts perfectly to the anatomy of the vulva. The tip is rounded for easy insertion and gentle G-spot stimulation. Additionally, it offers optimal flexibility to allow for necessary adjustments once it is in place.
advantage
One of the best things about this type of toy is that it is designed to stay in place while still stimulating the inside of the vagina. This eliminates the need to push, which can sometimes cause excessive friction at the entrance to the vulva.
This feature is particularly beneficial for those who may be experiencing discomfort due to a medical condition, dryness due to treatment (hormonal or other), or a life stage that results in reduced estrogen levels (such as menopause or breastfeeding). The toy is inserted at the beginning and removed at the end, making the experience potentially more pleasurable and less uncomfortable.
All models have the same 14cm insertable length and very similar weight – the difference is barely noticeable when held in the hand.
end
Like all LELO toys, these three Enigma models are made from high-quality silicone, which is extremely soft and comfortable to the touch. They also feature ABS and curved panels with the LELO logo. For the first time in the brand’s range, the board features a mirror-like finish and subtle gradients, making the stimulator a stunning piece.
In the case of Enigma and Enigma Cruise, the plate is glossy, while in Enigma Wave and Enigma Double Sonic it is a matte finish.
Stimulate
On the one hand, as mentioned earlier, the Enigma model offers the same external stimulation as the Sona 2 Cruise thanks to Sensonic technology. This means they use sound waves rather than direct contact with the skin. They feature a deep nozzle that accommodates clitoris of all shapes and sizes, providing intense stimulation.
The internal arms, on the other hand, are unique to these three Enigma models. Although their shapes are almost identical, their functions differ:
- enigma or enigma cruise: The inner arm uses vibration to stimulate the G-spot, which perfectly complements the sound waves that stimulate the clitoris.
- mystery wave: The inner arm provides two functions: vibration and movement. It uses wave technology that snakes around inside, similar to other LELO toys like Soraya Wave or Ina Wave. It has three motors, combining three different types of stimulation for a comprehensive experience.
- Mystery Double Sonic: The inner arm combines vibration with DeepSonic technology to create a gentle tapping action that stimulates the highly pleasurable A-spot located just behind the G-spot. It also offers three different types of stimulation for an immersive experience.
Function
All Enigma models feature Sensonic technology for external stimulation and, except for the original Enigma, they also include cruise control. This ensures that when the toy is pressed close to the body, it does not lose strength; instead, it increases, allowing you to cope with the pressure itself. In addition, each Enigma incorporates another technology tailored to its inner arm’s primary function, such as sinuous movements or tapping A-spot stimulation.
All three models come with Level 8 stimulationcombined with different modes and intensities, can be adjusted according to your sensitivity or desired power level. Some levels allow you to use these features independently. As an added safety feature, LELO’s latest toy can now automatically shut off after 20 minutes to prevent improper use.
this Mystery Double SonicThe latest model has an added feature: it can connect to the LELO app on your phone. Once paired, you will have access to two additional modes: “Kill me” and “out of control”.
All three models charge via the USB cable included in the box and are 100% waterproof, so you can take them into the bath or shower and enjoy them underwater.
How to use ENIGMA
Enigma toys feature the Insignia interface, which you’ll recognize from other toys from the brand. There are three buttons to control different functions: +, – and ().
- To open: Press the + or () button once
- Turn off: Press the () button or press the + and – buttons simultaneously for a few seconds
- To change modes: press the () button once
- To increase or decrease intensity: press + or – once respectively
Package
LELO also attracts us with its classic packaging, an elegant box with a transparent window that allows us to see the toy we are about to love. The texture of the black box stimulates our sense of touch, and the contrast between black and gold is pleasing to the eye. The only difference is that the first models Enigma and Enigma Cruise have slightly larger boxes.
Tip 1: Use plenty of lubricant. You can use any water-based lube you like, but I recommend one with a medium texture, somewhere between thin and thick. This way, you can apply it to the tip of the inner arm and gradually insert the toy without it slipping too much. Also, use a small amount of lubricant on the clitoris: sound stimulation will be more fun.
Tip 2: Open the toy before inserting it. Although the brand recommends turning it on once inside, I prefer to do it the other way around. To avoid being “pierced by the cold,” I turned it on and used the inner arm first to stimulate my clitoris and vulva lips. When I’m more aroused and lubricated, I position it and, using the vibration-only mode on the Wave and Double Sonic, slowly insert it, using the vibrations to stimulate the nerve endings as it enters. Finally, I adjust it and select the mode I want.
As you can see in this article, the three Enigma models, although they look almost identical, have three different tasks and stimulate in specific ways. If you are looking for a toy that allows you to enjoy both internal and external stimulation, this range is for you. You also decide how pleasure reaches your G-spot: vibrations with Enigma or Enigma Cruise, sinuous waves with Enigma Wave, and gentle taps to your A-zone with Enigma Double Sonic. Any one of them will make you surrender to the most comprehensive and absolute climax, and ultimately help you find the answer to your own pleasure.
