No samples were sent with the package.It certainly lubricates even though it is water-based. Still need a few more tries with the wife to see if it lives up to the hype. So far so good.No samples come withOthers reviewed product, so I'll shed some light on other things. Packaging is not discreet in anyway. It's a black bag with Complete Illicit description, so make sure if due diligence for no one can unsee what has been seen.The "Sample Kit" was a complete disappointment. It was a "Sample" the Original Pjur 1.5ml. Sorry, that is in no way a Kit. Receiving a single 1.5ml foil pack hardly justifies the nearly $6 per ounce.I should have known better, this is a German company, and I drive a Mercedes SUV. I blame the VAT System.Everyone stay safe out there, and Have Fun!!!A little gloppy and sticky when you initially put it on. But once it warms up, it's like heaven and very slick.Tried it with a friend and liked it better that the brand I traditionally use. More sensation and last longer, less messy.I'm giving this two stars because there was no sample pack at all. I definitely would not have paid $18 for 3.5 ounces of lubricant if I'd known there would be no samples to come along with it. By comparison, I can get an 8 oz bottle of Fav lubricant on Amazon for $8, and it is arguably of similar or perhaps even higher quality.This is unfortunate, as I bought this lubricant for an educational event where I will be testing it for effectiveness and could have promoted this product more if I had more samples. ?? oh well.Wife loves this product!
