Initially the exclusivity was kept by a strict distribution but as demand grew it had to change strategy.

Like men that women want them to be: gentle, soft, caring, romantic, smart, well built and willing to please. We call it pure oral pleasure from the country of Europe– Imported Unimaginable Pleasure.
