The Easy Love brand contacted us to let us test its products: a range of Made in France lubricants, scented, water- or silicone-based… We were pleased to discover them.
Here is a brief report.
Warming lubricant EasyLub crème brûlée
The warming lubricant EasyLub crème brûlée is the one that caught my attention first.
Crème brûlée, an unusual scent… But in practice, what is it like? Good or not?
Scent
The scent, somewhere between vanilla and caramel, is convincing. It can be recognised as a crème brûlée scent without stretching one’s imagination.
Taste
It’s uncanny: it truly tastes like crème brûlée straight from the oven, heat included.
Okay, afterwards, there’s still a vague slightly odd aftertaste, which reminds you that this isn’t food and that it’s best to stop before you’ve gobbled down the whole bottle. Besides, no indication tells us whether it’s edible – so we’re going to assume it isn’t.
Composition
The list of components is surprisingly short: “Glycerin, Propylene glycol, Aroma, Anisyl alcohol”.
The term “anisyl alcohol” refers to a chemical compound that gives a sweet scent: the caramel smell is due to it.
We note the presence of glycerine and propylene glycol, substances to be avoided from coming into contact with the vagina if yours is sensitive.
Texture
The lubricant EasyLub is transparent and very liquid. The drops slip between your fingers… I nearly spilled some on my keyboard at the very moment I am writing this article.
Use
The EasyLub lubricant is water-based, so it is compatible with condoms and sex toys.
The lubrication is adequate, without being exceptional. The warming effect is felt, and remains quite mild: it warms, but it doesn’t burn.
On the other hand, between the product’s high fluidity and the fact that one press on the bottle’s nozzle dispenses a good amount, you tend to get it everywhere.
Easy Anal lubricant
Easy Anal is an “anal-specific” lubricant, presented in a 100-millilitre bottle, topped with a push button and a cap.
If a subheading describes this product as a water-based lubricant, its leaflet nevertheless specifies that it is made up of a mixture of silicone and water.
Scent
The scent is very subtle, and is a bit reminiscent of the smell of glue sticks.
Taste
Without being awful, the taste is not very pleasant: it tastes of soap.
Composition
Among other ingredients, water, glycerine, silicones and two types of parabens: the composition is not very healthy for the body.
Texture
The texture is dense, almost paste-like. After leaving the bottle undisturbed for a few days, the first portion of lubricant that comes out is denser than the following ones, it seems to have dried a little, and forms a pudding that is hard to use.
Use
The Easy Anal lubricant is compatible with condoms. As for sex toys, you need to be careful: some sex toys made of silicone or containing silicone can be damaged by the silicone in the product.
Apart from the lubricant pudding problem mentioned in the previous paragraph, it lubricates quite well, but not as well as “classic” silicone lubricant.
Easy Love silicone lubricants
We received three bottles of these silicone lubricants, in varied scents: coconut, raspberry and tiaré flower.
Each bottle has a 50-millilitre capacity, and closes hermetically thanks to a cap that clips shut (fortunately, because spilling silicone lubricant in your belongings is a bit of bad luck, in the literal sense of the word).

Scent
The scents are pleasant, and correspond well to what they are supposed to represent: the raspberry and coconut lubricants smell of fruit, the tiaré flower one smells like tanning oil (I am not sure I have ever smelled tiaré flower anywhere other than in products intended for tanning, so that will be my olfactory reference).
My favourite is the coconut scent, which is frankly appetising.

Taste
Well, it isn’t made to be swallowed, but you can still have a little lick…
While the tiaré flower scent didn’t tempt me taste-wise, the other two have a pleasant flavour: the coconut scent reminds you of Malibu, and the raspberry one has a sweet taste.
Composition
The composition is not detailed. On the bottle, it is only indicated that they are “scented silicone-based lubricants, with no paraben or preservative” and “no oil or fat”. Well… That’s something.
After a brief online search, I learned that, for cosmetic products, the list of ingredients must be present on the packaging or in an enclosed leaflet. Strange… Perhaps I lost the leaflet in question.
Texture
The Easy Love silicone lubricants are fluid, slightly oily. Between the fingers, it is very “slippery”.
Use
The Easy Love silicone lubricants are effective, very effective, even… It slides almost by itself.
However, be careful not to put any on the sheets, it stains, and it is difficult to wash.
They can be used safely with condoms, but, like the Easy Anal, they are not compatible with all sex toys.
Thanks to Easy Love for providing us with the lubrifiants for this review
