Newcomer Le Stelle Delivers Curated Pleasure Experiences

Newcomer Le Stelle Delivers Curated Pleasure Experiences

Not even two years in the biz and Le Stelle is already turning heads and making a big impression. If you haven’t heard of them, listen up. What began as a small operation out of a Los Angeles garage has since grown into a global team of designers, engineers and product developers, all of whom are constantly “striving to improve the user experience by learning to ask the questions that matter.”

As Chief Strategy Officer Alvin Huang put it, “We want everything we do to be about the user experience. Even the smallest details — like the placement of a logo or diagram on our packaging — are done with the consumer in mind. We strive to make each piece worthy of the individual who ultimately holds it in their hands.”

We strive to make each piece worthy of the individual who ultimately holds it in their hands.

While the placement of a logo on a box might not seem like much, it’s exactly the attention to detail and mindfulness that sets Le Stelle and their products apart. As Huang noted, “Our guiding principle is to design products that are beautiful and thoughtful,” both in terms of the tech involved and the physical aesthetics.

A New Kind of Novelty

Learning to ask and learning to listen fuel the ever-inquisitive team as they continue to develop products that are unwavering in quality but that also exemplify a kind of modern, lighthearted simplicity in design and functionality.

While every product is inspired by and designed with a specific user experience in mind, perhaps none exemplifies the versatile nature of Le Stelle’s lineup more than the mix-and-match, choose-your-own-adventure Perks series. The toy that is “as versatile as you” invites consumers to “imagine the possibilities” with the choice of five different pairings, each of which comes with a sleek, chromatic-matte-finish charging base and two interchangeable silicone heads.

While it’s not the first-ever product to feature interchangeable parts, it certainly is the first to take away the two-for-one bargain aspect and focus the series around the “curated, holistic experience” it offers, said Huang.

With that in mind, the Le Stelle team came up with five unique sets, each catering to different and specific preferences and all offering a playful twist to deeply satisfying self-pleasure.

Each color-coordinated dual head and base combo is standardly splashproof, USB rechargeable, travel-friendly, and ergonomically designed for maximum flexibility, and features seven vibration patterns and three speed functions. From that point on, the choice is up to the consumer what they’re in the mood for that day.

What’s Your Vibe Today?

Compared to other lines under the brand’s umbrella, the Perks series offers perhaps the most innovative and fun way for consumers to interact with the product and play. Featuring four pairings of five interchangeable clitoral and G spot stimulators and one pair focused exclusively on anal play, each of the five options has a combo-specific color, which further helps to define the customized experience of each set.

For example, the bright lilac EX-1 package features a classic clitoral stimulating wand and a curved G-spot vibrator — perfect for individuals who enjoy both internal and external stimulation but perhaps not necessarily in conjunction with one another.

EX-4 offers a similar experience but replaces the wand — which can notably get up to 10,000 vibrations per minute — with a clitoral stimulator that encompasses the entire exterior of the vagina for a more diffused type of stimulation.

“For the ladies who want it all,” Le Stelle presents the Ex-3 whose dual-stim vibe can be swapped out for the previously mentioned exterior clitoral stimulator. With a collection of silicone bristles to tickle and tease your clit, this bubblegum pink pairing has you covered!

Finally, the periwinkle blue EX-C plays on the dynamics of its sister EX-1 but replaces the plain G-spot wand with the dual-action stimulator for another clit-stim-heavy experience that’s closer to that of EX-3. Arguably the best of both worlds, you get a classic wand vibrator plus the extra stimulation of a traditional rabbit-style vibe all wrapped into one.

The company would truly be remiss to not include at least one option for anal play and sure enough, the EXO set was sent to round out the collection. This dark teal combo includes a set of graduated anal beads and a classically curved butt plug to satisfy all your backdoor wants and needs with some cheeky vibrations to boot.

It comes as somewhat of a disappointment that the Perks attachment heads are not sold separately. However, harkening back to the company’s mission to create thoughtful, innovate products, the Perks series does just that and more. While it perhaps might be appealing to be able to select an entirely unique combo from a drop-down menu, Le Stelle isn’t selling factory pieces — they’re selling experiences, ones that they worked incredibly hard to curate at that. With the options offered within the Perks series, the company presents consumers with five styles rooted in the uniquely individual yet universally archetypal ways in which we all like to get off. At a retail price point between $69.90-$84.90 depending on the package, the Perks line is a whimsically fun yet solidly satisfying product.

Wave Those Magic Wands

In addition to the Perks collection, Le Stelle’s line of thoughtfully designed, innovative products also includes the Hidra and Avara personal massagers and the Iconic series of vibrators.

As Le Stelle’s flagship product, Hidra is the culminating effort of the company’s dedication to beauty and sleek tech in its pleasure products. Compared to other wands on the market, feedback on Hidra is that it is “unbelievably powerful,” Huang stated. He clarified, “But it’s a controlled kind of power — it’s very evenly distributed across the wand so the user doesn’t have to struggle to handle it.”

The dual-motor wand also features a heated tip opposite the larger silicone head for more targeted stimulation. Available in a pearly white or charcoal grey chromatic matte, this massager exemplifies the kind of luxury pleasure that the Le Stelle brand is capable of delivering.

Avara is meanwhile billed as the “lite” version of the Hidra massager but shouldn’t be confused for the weaker of the two. On the contrary, the pure copper motor is reportedly 30 percent more powerful than the industry standard and with 20 vibration patterns and five speed settings for a total of 100 unique combinations, Avara is quite the contender. Representing a more everyday type of luxury, Hidra’s lightweight counterpart is available in pastel shades of pink and purple and makes for discreet yet intensely powerful play.

Be Iconic

Finally, Le Stelle’s Iconic Series delivers a selection of classic designs with Le Stelle’s signature LED-illuminated one-touch star control system. Users are able to control the speed, vibration intensity and power now from one place for minimal-fuss fun. The three available styles are universally waterproof and made from body-safe silicone. The Iconic Classic’s compact design in particular makes it a travel-friendly option that’s perfect for on-the-go individuals.

A selection of Le Stelle products are available online through their website, with the full line available through their U.S. distribution partners: Eldorado, National Video Supply, Honey's Place and Williams Trading. As for their future plans, the company hopes to release a slate of new products in 2019 and is focused on expanding into the international market with a heavy initial emphasis on Europe.

For Le Stelle, the future is looking bright.
