Dolce by Lovense: My Experience After 3 Months of Testing

What is the Lovense Dolce?

The Lovense Dolce is a dual-stimulation vibrator designed to simultaneously pleasure your G-spot and clitoris. It features a U-shaped design with two powerful, independently controlled motors and an adjustable neck that can be bent to fit your unique anatomy.

Originally released under the name “Quake” (which you might still see in some places), Lovense renamed it to “Dolce” due to trademark issues. The product itself remains unchanged – only the name was updated.

What sets the Dolce apart from many competitors is its wearable design, making it suitable for discreet public play, and its connectivity through the Lovense Remote app. This allows for customizable vibration patterns, long-distance control by a partner, and synchronization with music, sounds, or even adult content.

As a wearable toy, it’s designed to stay in place hands-free, with the internal arm stimulating your G-spot while the external arm works on your clitoris. The flexible neck allows you to adjust the fit, though as I’ll discuss later, this doesn’t guarantee a perfect match for every body type.

Key Features and Specifications

Technical Specifications

Vibration Power and Patterns

The Lovense Dolce packs serious power in both motors. Even at the lowest setting, the vibrations are quite strong – there’s no “gentle start” option here. This is great news for power queens but might be overwhelming for those who prefer to ease into things.

The vibrations lean more toward the rumbly side than buzzy, which means they penetrate deeper into tissues rather than just stimulating the surface. When both motors run simultaneously, they create unique sensations as the vibrations interact with each other.

Through the physical buttons, you can access 3 steady vibration levels and 4 patterns. However, the real customization happens in the app, where you can create unlimited patterns, download community-created vibration sequences, or sync to music, sounds, or your partner’s voice.

Lovense Remote App: Control and Connectivity

Long-Distance Control

For long-distance relationships, the Lovense Remote app offers excellent features. You can connect with a partner by adding their username, then share control of your toy. The app includes text chat, photo sharing, video calls, and voice messages – creating a comprehensive platform for intimate connection from anywhere in the world.

In my testing, the long-distance features worked reliably with minimal lag. The connection remained stable even during extended sessions, which isn’t always the case with competitor apps.

For those interested in more anonymous play, the app also offers a “Control Link” feature that generates a temporary link you can share with someone without revealing your username. You can set how long they’ll have access to your toy before the connection automatically terminates.

Bluetooth Range and Reliability

The Bluetooth connection between the Dolce and your smartphone is impressively reliable. In my testing, I could maintain connection up to about 30 feet in an open space, though walls and other obstacles reduced this range.

Unlike some competitor apps that frequently disconnect when you lock your phone screen or switch to another app, the Lovense Remote maintained connection consistently. This reliability is crucial for public play scenarios where you don’t want to be constantly troubleshooting connection issues.

My Personal Experience with the Lovense Dolce

Comfort and Fit

The Lovense Dolce’s adjustable neck is a significant advantage over fixed-shape dual stimulators, but it doesn’t guarantee a perfect fit for everyone. In my experience, finding the right angle took some trial and error, and I strongly recommend adjusting it before insertion rather than trying to reposition it once it’s in place.

The G-spot arm is quite substantial – noticeably wider than the Lush 3. This provides a pleasant feeling of fullness for those who enjoy that sensation, but might be uncomfortable for those who prefer smaller insertable toys.

For me, the clit arm didn’t align perfectly with my anatomy – it sat slightly higher than my most sensitive spot. This is the inherent challenge with any dual-stimulation toy; what fits one person perfectly may miss the mark for another. Despite this slight misalignment, the powerful motor still delivered strong stimulation to the general area.

For extended wear, I found the Dolce less comfortable than the Lush 3 alone. The bulkier design creates a noticeable presence, especially when sitting or walking. It’s wearable for public play, but I wouldn’t recommend it for all-day comfort.

Vibration Experience

The vibration power of the Lovense Dolce is truly impressive. Both motors deliver strong, rumbly vibrations that penetrate deeply. Even on the lowest setting, the vibrations are quite powerful – there’s no gentle warm-up option here.

When both motors run simultaneously, they create unique sensations as the vibrations interact. This can lead to some incredibly intense experiences, especially when using custom patterns that alternate or pulse the motors in complementary rhythms.

The G-spot stimulation is comparable to the Lush 3 in strength, while the clitoral motor is even more powerful than the Ferri. For those who need strong vibrations to reach orgasm, the Dolce delivers in spades.

Noise Level

Given its powerful motors, the Lovense Dolce is not the quietest toy on the market. At its lowest setting, it produces around 40-50 dB of sound – quiet enough for most environments with ambient noise. At its highest setting, it reaches 60-70 dB, which is noticeable in quiet settings.

In my testing, I found the Dolce could be used discreetly in:

• Restaurants and cafés with moderate background noise (using low to medium settings)
• Bars and clubs (all power levels were masked by ambient noise)
• Movie theaters during louder scenes (low settings only)
• Outdoor public spaces with typical urban sounds

For very quiet environments like libraries or quiet offices, you’ll need to stick to the lowest settings or risk being heard. The G-spot motor is generally quieter than the clitoral motor since it’s muffled by the body.

Battery Life

In my testing, the Lovense Dolce’s battery lasted between 1-2 hours depending on the power levels used. At maximum power with both motors running, expect closer to 1 hour of playtime. At lower settings, you can stretch this to about 2 hours.

Charging takes approximately 70-90 minutes with the magnetic charging cable. The magnetic connection is secure enough that it won’t easily disconnect during charging, but I’d still recommend checking that it’s properly aligned.

The app conveniently displays the toy’s battery percentage, so you’re never caught by surprise with a dead battery during play. This feature is particularly helpful for planning longer sessions or public play adventures.

Public Play and Discreet Use

The Lovense Dolce is marketed as suitable for discreet public play, and while it can certainly deliver on this promise, there are some important considerations to keep in mind.

For successful public play with the Dolce, I recommend:

• Choose the right environment: Bars, restaurants with music, movie theaters, and other places with ambient noise work best
• Dress appropriately: Wear clothing that won’t show the slight bulge from the external arm
• Adjust before leaving home: Find the most comfortable position before heading out
• Use the Sound feature: In noisy environments, the Sound control feature ensures vibrations happen when ambient noise can mask them
• Have a backup plan: Keep the storage pouch with you in case you need to remove it discreetly

In my experience, the Dolce stays in place well during movement, though very active movement might cause it to shift. Wearing snug underwear helps keep everything secure. The toy is more noticeable when sitting on hard surfaces, as the external arm can press more firmly against your body.

For those new to public play, I’d recommend starting with shorter sessions in environments where you feel comfortable. The thrill of secret pleasure in public can be incredibly exciting, but it’s important to ease into it at your own pace.

Lovense Dolce vs. Alternatives

To help you decide if the Lovense Dolce is the right choice for you, I’ve compared it with several popular alternatives based on my personal testing and user feedback.

Lovense Dolce vs. Lush 3 + Ferri Combination

Many users (including myself) previously combined the Lovense Lush 3 (G-spot vibrator) with the Lovense Ferri (clitoral vibrator) to achieve dual stimulation. The Dolce essentially combines these functions into a single toy.

Verdict: The Dolce is more affordable than buying both toys separately and offers the convenience of a single device. However, the Lush 3 + Ferri combination provides better customization for fit, longer battery life, and the option to use each toy independently. If budget allows and precise positioning is important to you, the two separate toys might be preferable.

Lovense Dolce vs. We-Vibe Chorus

Verdict: These toys serve different primary purposes. The Dolce excels at powerful solo stimulation and public play, while the Chorus is designed specifically for couples to use during penetrative sex. The Dolce offers stronger vibrations and better app connectivity, while the Chorus includes a physical remote and a design that accommodates penetration.

Lovense Dolce vs. Lovense Flexer

Lovense recently released the Flexer, another dual-stimulation vibrator that adds a “come hither” motion to target the G-spot. Here’s how it compares to the Dolce:

Verdict: The Dolce offers stronger vibrations and better fit customization, while the Flexer adds movement but with less powerful motors and no adjustability. For most users, the Dolce provides a more reliable experience with its adjustable design and stronger vibrations.

Who Should Buy the Lovense Dolce?

Tips for Getting the Most from Your Lovense Dolce

Care and Maintenance

To keep your Lovense Dolce in optimal condition:

• Clean before and after use: Wash with mild soap and warm water
• Dry thoroughly: Allow to air dry completely before storage
• Store in the provided pouch: Protects from dust and lint
• Avoid extreme temperatures: Don’t leave in direct sunlight or extreme cold
• Check for firmware updates: The app will notify you of any available updates
• Don’t over-bend the neck: Respect the limits of the adjustable neck to prevent damage

Final Verdict: Is the Lovense Dolce Worth It?

After three months of testing the Lovense Dolce in various scenarios and comparing it with alternatives, I can confidently say it’s one of the most powerful dual-stimulation vibrators available. Its adjustable design, powerful motors, and excellent app connectivity make it a standout option for many users.

The Dolce excels at delivering intense stimulation to both the G-spot and clitoris simultaneously. The adjustable neck helps it fit a wider range of body types than fixed-shape competitors, though it still won’t be perfect for everyone due to the inherent limitations of dual-stimulation toys.

For those who prioritize power, app connectivity, and the convenience of a single toy for dual stimulation, the Dolce offers excellent value. Its price point is reasonable considering it combines the functionality of two separate toys.

However, if you have very specific needs regarding fit, prefer gentler vibrations, or need extended battery life, you might want to consider alternatives like separate G-spot and clitoral toys or the We-Vibe Chorus for couples play during penetration.

Overall, the Lovense Dolce earns my recommendation for its impressive power, adjustability, and reliable connectivity. It’s a versatile toy that excels at solo play, public adventures, and long-distance connection.
