As the name suggests, they've got a
large range of lingerie and bondage gear, sex aids, etc. On top of this, they have a
large range of uncensored American import magazines and a lot of videos. Of these,
only about 40 or so were R18 (though I was last in not long after the changes in
regulation) and they had no R18 DVDs, though they said they were going to start stocking
them soon, and so may already have them. A good shop; clean, well lit and not
sleazy. Customer service is pretty good and some of the staff are really helpful.
From Al
Decided to check this store out, visited the Leather & Lace store in
Drummond Street which was staffed by friendly people and had a reasonable
selection of mag's, DVD's and a wide range of videotapes (more varied than
dvd's as a matter of fact).
DVD's were priced around the £35 mark, but a sign on the counter stated that
as of late June, the trade-in service they offered was being stopped and all
DVD's would be lowered to £30...not too bad, maybe it was just a bad day for
selection.
ice place...highly recommended.

Reader review, March 2006
It's not a
licensed shop, it's purely sex toys and fetish gear -- the shop's opposite a school for Special Needs children and its sex shop license was
refused after a slew of objections on that basis.

Review from
The List, Oct 2007:
Ethical Sex Toys
The current zenith of grown-up girly sex shopping is a
tiny red, black and gold room on Broughton Street, where gilt-edged
mirrors reflect rails of silk and pots of ostrich feathers, and the
antique armoirs are full of ethically-sourced handcuffs, organic
lubricant, pure silk blindfolds and non-toxic sex toys.
Organic Pleasures, run by 25-year-old Lucy Tanat-Jones,
feels like your teenage dream boudoir made all too pliable flesh.
Organic Pleasures, though, is much more than another retro-influenced
boutique. It is, Tanat-Jones says with pride, the first shop in Europe to
make a point of only stocking ethically-produced, hypo-allergenic and
non-toxic sex toys. ‘The vast majority of sex toys on the market today are
made with PVC, and a lot of them use phthalates, which can be really bad
for you. There are no regulations on that part of the industry, though, so
we just don’t consider it, even though it’s such an intimate concern.
That’s part of the reason why I wanted to start up this shop, really – to
make women more aware of what they’re using.’

From Taboo, July 2008: Touch, Feel and
Enjoy
The shop itself is fitted with beech slat wall with cream inserts
leading down to tile flooring in marble effect. Chrome grid wall separates
the DVDs from the toys and lingerie, We carry over 1500 DVDs on display,
and customers can browse without feeling they are being looked at by
others looking at toys or lingerie.
Glass cabinets carry the best sellers like rabbits, glass toys and so on.
The front window also has chrome grid wall on the inside and this area is
mainly for our range of leather products, like whips and bondage gear.
We are now in our second year at Evesham, and we have been a great success
not only with locals but surrounding areas. We encourage people to touch,
feel and enjoy. In other words we not only give them advice on any product
we sell, but remove it from the box, insert batteries and show them the
product features, good and bad points. By being straight forward, and
honest we have a lot of repeat customers and new customers from
recommendation.

Thanks to Richard, December 2005:
Do not buy anything from these people.. I've known this chain of shop
since around 1990 and they are still cowboys. Do not confuse them with the
Spanish porn production company, Private, who are a superb and reputable
business.
The Exeter shop is not the worst I've seen, however if you go in with a
coupon from a newspaper they will tell you "no, no - we aren't involved in
that offer.." or if you try to get a 50% credit on their (way-overpiced)
dvd's you will be told: no - you should have read the sign more
carefully, we only exchange like-for-like.
Save your money - go to
Simply Pleasure at the other end of town or if you are looking for
porn mags, you'll find the "Read & Return" bookshop just opposite.

Thanks to Richard, December 2005:
Simply Pleasure is probably the biggest and
brightest sex-shop in the south-west. The staff are courteous and helpful
and never do that irritating - hovering behind you "are you looking for
anything in particular, sir" - routine. It's a nice shop.
They don't stock many porn mags because at the other end of town is the
excellent "Read&Return" bookshop which has a really big porn mag section at
the back of the shop -buy new or used.
For hardcore dvd's though, Simply Pleasure is well stocked. Prices as I
recall are £45 each or £60 for 2 ( not sure tho) which is a lot, but you can
return a dvd (with receipt!) to get a 50% credit on another one. It's the
sex-toys that are the main feature of the shop - prices are high (as is
always the case if you don't buy mail-order), but they make a point of
trying to stock good quality sex-toys that really work ( ask them about the
new high tech multi- feature vibrators!). Top marks also for being
female/couples friendly.
The shop is difficult to find if you don't know your way around Exeter so
take a street map (don't say I didn't warn you!) but there is a small
pay-parking zone just outside the shop which is very convenient. One last
thing - you might want to take your own bag if you are a little self-concious.
They may have changed plastic bag designs by now, but the old "love-shack"
branded plastic bags were anything but discreet!
