Les secrets d’Aphrodite

A big erotic shop at the gates of Tours

Les secrets d'Aphrodite has been settled in Saint-Cyr-sur-Loire since 2011, on boulevard Charles-de-Gaulle, right next to a Kiloutou. Easy to spot thanks to its flashy pink storefront, the shop doesn't go unnoticed in this rather commercial, busy area.

With its 160 to 200 sqm, it's one of the biggest sex shops around. Enough room to browse the shelves without feeling cramped, which is a nice change from the small, discreet stalls you find elsewhere.

What's on the shelves

The shop bets on a selection of well known lingerie brands, with a range that goes from classic sexy to full on daring. You'll also find club wear for going out or spicing up an evening.

On the accessories side, the offer covers sex toys for every use, but also a whole SM section (handcuffs, whips, bondage accessories) and latex for those who love materials that cling to the skin. A pretty wide assortment for a provincial shop.

Adults only access

Like any establishment of this kind, access is strictly reserved for people of legal age. Customers come here to shop with complete discretion, free of judgment or lingering staff looks.

The store prides itself on a warm welcome, designed to put at ease both those pushing the door open for the first time and regulars coming back to restock or discover something new.
