Working in the sexual wellness field has a lot of perks. While one might think the most exciting aspect are the sex toy samples, the reality is that the greatest perk of all is when a toy actually does what it says it’s going to do—you wouldn’t believe how rare that is. So, when I tried MysteryVibe’s Legato, “the world’s first flexible labia vibrator,” and it actually did what it said it would do, I was thrilled. But before I get into the details of orgasms, increased lubrication, and all that good stuff, let’s start at the beginning.
My first impressions of the MysteryVibe Legato
When Legato arrived at my door, its presentation was beautiful. To the touch and sight, Legato is pure quality. You can tell that not just science and engineering were a major component in its creation, but so was aesthetic appeal. I played with its flexibility—it goes from circular to oval for the best labial fit—checking out the design. Then, per the instructions, I plugged in Legato, letting it charge for at least an hour.
Once I saw that the light was a solid green, meaning it was fully charged, I downloaded the app and prepared to explore. I’d like to say that things went smoothly at this point, but they did not. I struggled with not only trying to turn on Legato, but sync it to the app for easily a half hour. Just when I thought I’d have to make a call and claim my Legato was defunct, something magically clicked, and the vibrator and the app became one.
How I tested
I sat on my bed and got Legato into position. In being a labia vibrator, it’s not meant for just one part of the vulva, but as much of the exterior as possible—the clitoris included. At first I wasn’t sure how I was going to keep it in place, as it doesn’t have any arms or anything similar, but then I realized it has two notches on either side of it, so that helped. I will say that using one hand to hold Legato, and the other hand holding my phone to navigate through the app’s vibes wasn’t exactly easy. But once I landed on a vibration I liked, a steady stream called Mad Max, I put down my phone and leaned in to the sensations.
What’s important to understand about MysteryVibe is that they’re not putting out products that are only meant for pleasure. Instead, their devices are created to address sexual dysfunctions so the people who use them can have a better quality sex life. Legato, in fact, was engineered to aid those who struggle with vaginal dryness. Although dryness has never been an issue for me, I do experience waves of being less wet than other times, but with Legato, I was wet. As in, I could feel the onslaught of moisture as a response to the four motors in the ring that were stimulating not just my labia and clitoris, but my mons pubis—that’s sex journalist fancy talk for the fatty tissue on the pubic bone. It was in this spot especially that I felt deep, penetrative vibrations that reached places I didn’t realize could be stimulated. It was a level of intensity that bordered on being overwhelming, but in a way that felt right. At that point in my solo masturbation sesh, I did what anyone else would do: reached for a dildo to take advantage of the internal sensations that I was already feeling. If it sounds like I had my hands full, I did until I realized that a rabbit vibrator would hold Legato in place better than a glass dildo.
