Sex dolls are designed to mimic human skin in both feel and appearance, but the smell can vary depending on the materials used. Most dolls made from TPE or silicone have a neutral or very faint smell when new. However, some users report that dolls can have a slight odor, especially right after manufacturing or during the first few uses. This scent often dissipates after the doll has been cleaned and aired out.
The smell of sex dolls is typically not as strong or realistic as human skin, but it is often designed to be as non-intrusive as possible. Some manufacturers even offer odorless dolls, but if you do notice an odor, it can be reduced or eliminated by thoroughly cleaning the doll with mild soap and water, followed by drying and air-drying in a well-ventilated area.
To ensure that your doll doesn’t develop an unpleasant odor over time, make sure to clean it regularly after each use, especially in areas prone to collecting moisture, such as the joints and genital areas. Additionally, applying cornstarch or baby powder after cleaning can help maintain a smooth, non-sticky surface and prevent any lingering smells.
If the odor persists despite cleaning, consider checking for issues like trapped moisture, which can lead to mold or mildew. A regular cleaning routine will keep the doll smelling fresh and in good condition.
