Distrissex

A local institution

In Saint-Quentin, Distrissex isn't a sex shop that just opened its doors to ride a trend. The shop has been around since 1990, run by Christophe, and has racked up over three decades of experience advising customers. With 170 sq m of floor space, it's one of the biggest love shops in the Hauts-de-France region.

That longevity shows in how the place is organized: nothing improvised, real sorting by category, and a team used to answering questions without making first timers feel awkward.

What you'll find on site

The shop covers pretty much the whole spectrum of adult pleasure: sex toys from recognized brands like Lelo, Satisfyer or Dorcel, erotic lingerie, BDSM accessories, lube, costumes, erotic jewelry and even silicone dolls. You'll also find wellness products and a substantial video section, with over 4500 DVDs in stock, more than 150 brands referenced in total.

A private space with viewing booths lets you watch on site, away from prying eyes. It's a real plus for those who want to try before they buy, or simply treat themselves to a discreet moment between errands in town.

A broad customer base

What comes up often in feedback is the atmosphere: friendly, judgment free, open to all orientations and all ages. Local press has actually highlighted the welcome given to senior customers, treated exactly like everyone else, with no taboo or condescension.

Regulars talk about a trusted place where you can ask embarrassing questions without fearing a sideways glance. That's also what explains the loyalty of part of the customer base over the years.
