The Poet is Smile Makers' first air-pulse suction vibrator — a luxe addition to the Singapore-founded, beauty-aisle-friendly brand best known for its profession-themed silicone vibrators (The Firefighter, The Tennis Coach, The Surfer). Released in mid-2021 and still in the lineup, the Poet's pitch is anatomical inclusivity: it ships with three different-sized silicone mouth attachments so the suction surface actually fits the wearer.
The standout features are the three interchangeable mouths — a meaningful answer to the "one-size-mouth doesn't fit every clit" complaint that has dogged the entire air-pulse category since the original Womanizer — and the squeeze-to-control intensity. Instead of cycling through five buttons in the heat of the moment, you grip the body harder to ramp up; squeeze a second time to lock or unlock the level. Marie Claire's reviewer called the squeeze-control "the first ever clitorally-inclusive toy controlled by squeeze alone" and a meaningful UX win. Five pulsation modes, premium Japanese-imported silicone, fully waterproof and rechargeable.
Reviewer consensus is strong. PureWow, Marie Claire, and Hypebae all flag the air pulse intensity as serious — comparable to or stronger than the Womanizer Premium 2 in PureWow's testing — and the silent operation, beauty-product packaging, and discretion-friendly design earn it a spot in mainstream gift guides. The complaints are predictable: at $129 USD it's a real investment, and the squeeze sensors take a couple of sessions to learn intuitively.
It runs $129 at Smile Makers direct and at Bloomingdale's, Saks, Free People, and Cult Beauty (£119.99 in the UK). Body-safe medical silicone, IPX7 waterproof, USB-C rechargeable, two-year warranty.
The Bottom Line
For air-pulse fans who've never quite found the right fit — or who want a suction toy that doesn't shout "sex toy" from the nightstand — the Poet's three mouths and beauty-counter design make it the most thoughtfully inclusive entry in the category. For pure power-per-dollar in air pulse, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Gen 3 still wins on price; for combined air pulse + traditional vibration, the Womanizer Enhance is the better technical pick.
