Flavorless condoms?
June 29, 2020 11:40 AM   Subscribe

I'm looking for condoms that don't leave an unpleasant flavor (or smell) on penises or vaginas.

Not having babies is great! However, giving and receiving oral sex is also great, and sometimes I'd like the option to enjoy those things after a bit of PIV sex – without the aftertaste of latex or lubricant.

Can you recommend a condom brand that leaves little or no flavor behind? Both lubricated and unlubricated are fine.

I don't think I'm interested in flavored condoms.

I am the penis-haver in this equation.

Thanks!

Best answer: I'm not sure about taste, but Skyn are synthetic latex and smell way better than latex condoms, so they may have a better taste as well.

Best answer: +1 for the varieties of Skyn. Very satisfied.

Best answer: Yup. Skyn are not latex but nitrile, IIRC. No latex smell / taste.

What you are probably tasting is the spermicide and yes, you very much want that. Instead I would be looking for some kind of wipe that doesn't have a flavor.

Response by poster: Well, that's a pretty clear consensus. Thanks!
