My review
Who it’s not for: if you prefer a neutral scent or the warming effect of a container you melt, the massage oils section offers other textures. And if you have very reactive skin, a patch test beforehand is non-negotiable.
Description
This massage oil from Shunga is designed to glide over the skin without ever feeling sticky. I recommend it for a hands-free massage for two, as a couple or solo, when you want to combine touch and indulgence thanks to its raspberry scent. The 240 ml size gives you enough for several sessions without having to keep an eye on the bottle, and its fluid texture works just as well for a short massage as for a longer full-body session.
Cold-pressed oil enriched with vitamin E
This oil is made from cold-pressed natural oils, a method that better preserves their qualities than hot pressing. It contains vitamin E, an antioxidant that complements the formula. Its texture leaves no greasy residue on the skin or sheets and does not clog pores, avoiding the sensation of a sticky film after the massage. This oil is designed for both cosmetic and indulgent use, with a raspberry scent rather than a simple ambient fragrance.
How I use it for a massage
The raspberry scent perfumes every movement without becoming overpowering: my clients often tell me they appreciate this indulgent touch without any sticky, sugary feeling on the skin. Pour a small amount of oil into the palm of your hand, warm it for a few seconds by rubbing your hands together, then spread it in long strokes over your partner's body. The 240 ml bottle allows you to use a generous amount session after session, without having to warm the oil beforehand, since it can be applied directly at room temperature.
A company specializing in erotic cosmetics
Shunga draws inspiration from the Japanese art of the same name, the ukiyo-e prints from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries that depicted sensual scenes with great care and refinement. The brand has built its entire line of cosmetics around this heritage, combining indulgent fragrances with textures designed for touch rather than merely visual appeal.
Who it's for, and who it's not for
I recommend this oil if you're looking for a simple massage aid, without any device to melt or monitor, and you like the idea of a delicious raspberry scent. If you prefer a completely neutral fragrance or a format that heats itself, take a look at my selection of massage oils to compare the other available scents and textures.
A friend's advice — always test a small amount on the inside of your wrist before the first full use, just to make sure your skin and the raspberry scent agree with each other.
