Your Very Own Boudoir

Create a sexy bedroom for the most deeply connected, playful and explorative sex of your life.

Harriet Wamutimba
Your Very Own Boudoir

Aboudoir is a woman’s sensual private bedroom that is set up for sexual magic and eroticism.

In the past, married men and women slept in separate bedrooms. When the man wanted to have sex with his wife, he would go into her hut/boudoir/ space where he would be treated to relaxing massages that were given using tantalizing oils, smudged with smoke from cleansing and stimulating herbs. He would then be fed intoxicating aphrodisiacs before sex that would be preceded by ecstatic foreplay.

These days, we share spaces including the bedroom. The woman (unless single) seldom has the opportunity to create this enchanting space. Creating a boudoir is part of reclaiming an ancient art, albeit in a modern set up and introducing components that can enhance intimacy and pleasure between couples.

The importance of a boudoir

If you have extra room, create a boudoir that is not part of your shared bedroom. If you do not, you can still create one in your bedroom. A boudoir should exude an aura of mystique. Just as a woman invites a man into her yoni and body which she has carefully soaked in aromatic bathing water, oiled lusciously and dressed seductively, she also invites her man into a space that she has purposefully curated. It is a space that has the ability to intoxicate ones partner because it is laced with the intention of lovemaking, healing and creating. The female in the relationship usually creates the boudoir with the help of her partner.

Tips on creating a boudoir

The perfect boudoir should evoke all the senses. Pay attention to the senses because it is through them that we experience sensuality. You can start with one sense like sight. Master it before moving to the next.
