Massage oil without the fruit flavouring. Some are genuinely unscented, some carry a light botanical note — either way, the point is a good glide and skin that does not smell of bubblegum afterwards.
Why plain oil is the better massage product
Flavoured oils are made to taste of something, and the flavouring is often the largest ingredient after the base. Plain oils spend that budget on the base instead — sweet almond, jojoba, coconut, grapeseed — which is what actually determines how long you can work before reapplying.
If the massage is the point rather than the licking, this is the shelf.
Shunga Sensual Erotic at 240 ml and Kamasutra Harmonious Blend at 236 ml are the full-size options — and a real massage uses more oil than people expect, so the large bottles are not extravagant.
Gels and body-to-body
Not everything here is a thin oil.
Massage gels like the Eros Luxury Gel are thicker and stay on the surface longer.
Nuru-style gels — the Eros Nuru 500 ml — are extremely slippery preparations for full-body sliding contact. They need a lot of product, a waterproof surface and somewhere to shower afterwards. Bought by accident, they are a surprise.
🚫 Oil and latex do not mix
Oil weakens latex. A latex condom exposed to oil can fail without visibly tearing, and the same applies to gloves and dams.
So keep the oil for the massage and switch to a water-based lubricant for anything involving a condom. Do not use massage oil as a lubricant for penetration — it is formulated for skin, not for internal use, and it is difficult to wash out.
Oils can also degrade silicone toys over time.
Sizes, and the practical picks
Small — Eros Oriental gel 30 ml.
Mid-range — Extase Sensual Silk Touch, plain and inexpensive.
A larger bottle — Body In Balance 200 ml, the value size.
Higher up — Kamasutra Flying Spirit.
The top — the Shunga Carnal Pleasures collection, a full set rather than a bottle.
Practicalities
Oil marks fabric. Use a towel, and wash it promptly — oil left in cotton oxidises and goes rancid.
Warm the bottle in your hands or a bowl of warm water before pouring. Cold oil on skin undoes the first five minutes of relaxing someone.

Can I use it as a lubricant?
No. Use a lubricant for lubrication — oil is incompatible with latex and hard to wash out internally.
Will it stain sheets?
Yes, oil marks fabric. Use a towel and wash it soon after.
What is the difference between oil and gel?
Gel is thicker and stays on the surface; oil absorbs more and spreads further. Gel suits longer sessions.
Does massage oil go off?
Oils oxidise. A year or two unopened, less once opened. Store away from heat and light, and go by smell.
