A sex shop like no other
Passage Du Désir has set up shop at Terrasses du Port, right in the heart of the mall, a stone's throw from Quai du Lazaret. That's actually its main selling point: being the first French lovestore to land in this kind of spot, far from the usual opaque windows and red neon signs.
The bet here is to break the codes of the traditional sex shop. No sketchy vibe or awkwardness at the door: the shop aims to be bright, approachable, designed for a wide audience, whether you show up solo, as a couple, with your girlfriends or just out of curiosity.
What you'll find inside
The selection covers the essentials of a well stocked erotic boutique: sex toys for every level of experience, lingerie, playful cosmetics (oils, gels, massage products) and a range of naughty gifts designed for couples or for bachelorette and bachelor parties.
Purchases can be made click and collect, handy if you want to skip browsing the aisles on a busy Saturday afternoon. And for those who prefer discretion right to the end, order packaging stays neutral, with no logo or hint of what's inside.
A loyalty program, the Purple Club, lets regular customers rack up perks.
Welcome and staff
The point that comes up most often in reviews is the staff. Trained to guide without judging, they put at ease those who walk through the door for the first time or aren't quite sure where to start between vibrators, massage oils and more specialized accessories.
This approach clearly changes the game for women on their own or couples who sometimes dread the heavy atmosphere of certain classic sex shops. Online reviews specifically praise this relaxed vibe, and point to the convenient mall location as a real plus for popping in without any particular detour.
Practical info
The shop is open every day from 10am to 8pm, which leaves a nice window of time, including on Sundays. It's located at 9 Quai du Lazaret, in the Terrasses du Port shopping mall, in Marseille.
