Should I choose the Intense or the Gentle clitoral serum? Intimate Earth makes two versions because sensitivity varies from one woman to the next. Both get their effect from natural Japanese peppermint oil. Intense contains a higher concentration of it and is made for women who want a stronger feeling. Gentle contains less and is aimed at those who are more sensitive. If you have never used a clitoral gel, Gentle is the cautious first choice. If milder products have done little for you, Intense is the step up.
Intense: the stronger clitoral serum from Intimate Earth
Intense is a clitoral arousal serum from Intimate Earth in a 1 oz (30 ml) airless pump. Its active note is natural Japanese peppermint oil, at a higher concentration than in the brand's Gentle version. The formula is menthol-free. It can be used for clitoral foreplay, during intercourse or together with a toy. The maker suggests starting with a pea-size amount and adding more if needed.
Best for: For women who want a more noticeable sensation from a clitoral gel, or who found the Gentle version too mild. It fits into foreplay, partnered sex and toy play alike. First-time users with sensitive skin may prefer to begin with Gentle.

Frequently asked questions
How much should I apply?
The maker suggests starting with a pea-size amount on a finger, massaged directly onto the clitoris. More can be added if needed. Because this is the stronger version, begin small.
Does it contain menthol?
No. Intimate Earth states that its products do not contain menthol. The sensation in this serum comes from natural Japanese peppermint oil, which is present at a higher concentration than in the Gentle version.
Can I use it with a vibrator?
Yes. The maker lists clitoral stimulation with a toy as one of its uses, alongside foreplay and intercourse. Apply the serum first, then bring in the vibrator, and wash the toy after use as you normally would.
