Fanatic Henessy

Introduction:
A rundown of my personal experience, after at least 3 flights, (usually more) with the sleeve and texture, chamber by chamber. Check out my profile if you’d like to see the rating scale/criteria I use and a bit of background info for more context. Now onto the review!

Review:
Fanatic starts off with a loose opening that leads into a pleasurable first chamber of thick spiraled ribs and triangular ridges angled towards the entrance. The ribs stand out a lot and keep a nice grip on your shaft. The effect created with its constant grabbing and letting go as each rib and ridge catch you is a really nice stimulation to go along with their thickness adding resistance and some extra intensity through their sturdy structure. The angled, triangular bumps are less prominent in comparison, but provide a nice added variety with their more forgiving edges allowing you to glide through them smoothly. The spiraled ribs transition very organically into the rings of squares after, keeping the same level of intensity and similar resistance with just enough give between the two. These squares provide a pleasurable destination for the head as the spirals work their way around and along your shaft and both chambers have a really nice rub along the glans when pulling back through them.

Conclusion:
Fanatic manages to find a perfect balance by having firm textures within a looser sleeve to provide strong identifiable sensations with enough give and space inside to keep them firmly in the pleasureable zone without becoming too rough.

Introduction:
I try my best to keep my ratings and reviews accurate relative to the other Fleshlights that I own. For this reason I tend to make references the others in my reviews. I like to give insight into what I was thinking leading up to my purchase of Fleshlights in these reviews. If you aren't interested in this then please skip my Intro sections.

Review:
Intro:
Continuing my Black Friday 2024 searching with the same intentions as my last pick, (Lightning) I continued looking through the list of Fleshlight Girls, looking for women I recognize, but whose sleeves are also different enough from what I already own. Eva Lovia was an early addition to the list of choices, not too far down the list I saw Gina Valentina and Henessy. I'm not a huge fan of Gina's so I skipped her. Henessy got my attention, she looked familiar but I wasn't sure. I looked her up on thenude**** and sure enough it was who I was remembering. I'm more familiar with her aliases Anika and Alina, but some studios I'm familiar with also call her by the name that ILF does. I recognize her from a bunch of studios I'm a fan of: Femjoy, Metart, Nubiles, and Sexart just to name a few. So I used fleshassist's compare feature with Sugar and Fanatic. They both have a lot of spirals, which is good because my collection lacks them, outside of Exotica. I thought about it for a while and eventually decided that Fanatic looked more interesting.

Orifice:
Fanatic's orifice is exceptionally intricate. It captures Alina's unique clit hood fold pretty well, and has a lot of detail in the wrinkles and folds in general. What is extra special about this mold, is how deep the details go. Usually Fleshlight orifices do a decent job on the surface, but then going into the canal they quickly smooth out and become far less detailed. This is not the case with Fanatic, she has molded detail going in at least 1/2". Not many other sleeves in my collection do this, only Destroya and Creampuff come to mind. Like Eden Lightning, Attack, and a few others, she has a lotus-like effect when you penetrate her vulva. The front of the orifice is spread in a way that makes penetration easy, her lips guide you in as your glans enjoys all the tiny textures.

Section A: (Ratchet Spiral)
Judging by the ratings, I thought this section was going to be comparable to the spirals in Exotica. To my surprise, this section is far more intense in my opinion. The entire 4" of this section is very high intensity, as though it was a 4" long version of one of the "Pleasure Dome" that Destroya is famous for, and several other sleeves have smaller versions of. (like Butterfly and Tease) The ratchet shape flicks your glans over and over around in a spiral as you thrust in, and as you thrust out it has a similar flicking to the underside of the helmet. I'm uncircumcised and my foreskin retracts when I'm hard, maybe this has something to do with why I feel this section so strongly. It doesn't numb me as quickly as Destroya does either, so the intensity is perceived as significantly higher. The intensity isn't unbearable or anything, but it is highly unrealistic, and very pleasing. She'll send shivers up your spine. Eventually this section will numb me, but since the textures throughout are more chunky than the little teeth in Stoya, it still takes effort to last.

Section B: (Brick Tunnel)
It's a very good thing that this section is here, otherwise I imagine cumming inside would be painful. This section is a nice break from the high intensity of the previous section, but due to its looseness you can still feel the texture pretty well. This section is a lot like how the similarly shaped section in Eden is, but more intense, likely because of the decreased tightness. If you take things slow then you can feel the change in texture, but when going quicker the transition point between A and B is a bit harder to notice. Since this section is looser, it didn't have the same break-in period as the alike section in Eden.

Section C: (Beefy Pseudo-Lotus)
What a great way to end. I'm just the right length for my glans to penetrate through this pseudo lotus node with a nice gentle popping sensation. Although of course it's not anatomically accurate, I love when sleeves have this sort of thing deep in them, it give a nice mental image that you're penetrating/bumping the cervix. The thickness of this node makes the sensation have more of a penetrating sensation than a thinner lotus, like the ones in the back of Attack provide.

Section D: (Cross Hatches)
Section E: (Ribs)
I'm grouping both of these sections together because I don't reach far enough into Section D to have an opinion, and section E is completely out of my reach. I will mention here however, that the cross hatches can be a bit difficult to clean and dry. Air doesn't flow that well in this back section and I found that moisture can easily get caught in Section D. I use a fan similar to the Air to dry my sleeves since my experiences with Heavenly, but I think you can get passed this flaw by just poking your microfiber cloth in there and drying the holes of the cross hatches out, it's not too deep in to reach.

Conclusion:
I have no idea why this sleeve is ranked so low in intensity, this is now one of the most intense sleeves in my collection. The other ratings I can understand, but this sleeve is highly underrated in the intensity department. Maybe it is because I'm uncut. Either way, I believe that this sleeve is highly slept on. Only 2 reviews? crazy! I highly recommend Fanatic to anyone that wants a more intense sleeve, and length really doesn't matter with her. All the intensity is up front. She is a slightly looser Fleshlight, but as long as you're around average girth she'll feel fantastic.

Welcome to another review by yours truly, revtwentyseven!

A few points of info when reading my reviews:

I am circumcised, use Gun Oil H20 lube, and generally FLy several times with each sleeve, including once immediately prior to the review. Most of my reviews reference how that review FLight was accomplished.

Now on to the review for the: Henessy Fanatic!

How I got it: I got this sleeve during the 2021 Year End/New Years sale. I originally got this sleeve as I initially thought that as Fanatic dropped out of the Orgy section page that it was about to be discontinued (but it turns out it only dropped off the Best Sellers list, a different sort setting restored the sleeve to the list), and bought it with case.

Aesthetics: The sleeve's front is a replica of Henessy's vulva, which is visually appealing. The opening into the canal is also inviting as well.

Lube: As mentioned in the intro, I use Gun Oil H2O, which is a water-based lubricant. DO NOT USE the original silicone variant of lube or any silicone or oil lube. The Fanatic is a bit of a looser sleeve, but because of the various textures, don't presume you can skimp out on lube. More is always better.

Noise: If you unscrew the cap slightly, the Fanatic does emit some noise, but unless you are FLying with your room open or someone actually in the room, it's probably not audible outside the room. In fact, there were points where I was literally going to (Pound)town with the sleeve, and it wasn't that particularly noisy.

Penetration: The Fanatic is a bit on the loose side of sleeves, but it doesn't mean that penetrating it isn't enjoyable. As I entered into the sleeve, I encountered the initial spiral vortex, similar to the Vortex sensation but a little different. Then, I reached the chamber of convex bumps and then finally maxing out just past a wide ringed opening (kinda like a Lotus node, but way larger). Pulling back really emphasized the convex bumps and the reverse spiral sensation was also a good feeling.

Intensity: The Fanatic has a lot of texture to the sleeve, but the looseness actually provides a bit of a (dare I say, welcome) damper on the intensity. This is a sleeve that can be enjoyed for a considerable interval of time for those who have average girth, and those who have more girth I could imagine still enjoy this sleeve. But over time, as I really got into the FLight with the Fanatic, I could really begin to feel these textures. I still felt I could last a little longer if I wanted to, or if I wanted to go for the quick payoff, I could. This particular FLight for the review, I chose the latter.

Orgasm: With a FL, there are three orgasms that tend to come about (pun intended). One is a gentle buildup that leads to a nice orgasm. Another is one that causes you to cum without warning. The last is a "when you blow, you know." The Fanatic is definitely in the first set as you can definitely work towards lasting with this sleeve. But, the Fanatic also has all sorts of tricks to help you to a quick finish if that's what you desire.

Cleanup: A good steady stream of warm/hot water will easily remove all of the lube and aftermath, but do take some time, and perhaps run your fingers through the sleeve to make sure everything rinsed out. While this is a looser sleeve, the textures might still hold on to something.

Now, if you have the Fleshlight AIR, drying is a breeze. Dry the outer sleeve and the case, put the sleeve back in the case, with neither lid on and screw in the FL to the AIR and turn the AIR on. Although I think two presses (40 minutes) is probably sufficient, it's fine to go for three presses of the on button (60 minutes) to ensure your sleeve is totally dry. Unscrew from AIR, recap the FL and it's ready to go again. If you don't have a AIR, Paper Towels (and quality paper towels, not store brand economy towels) are your next best friend. Run them through the canal a few times (be careful not to tear them). Then leave out in open air to dry (if you need to conceal the sleeve, stick in a old (but clean) t-shirt loosely to allow air to vent.

Conclusion:
The Fanatic is a excellent option for those with more girth as it's not too tight of a sleeve and for those with average girth will still enjoy the various textures once one gets underway with their FLight.
