PACKAGED SILICONE LUBRICATED CONDOM THAT PROVIDES SENSATION
Provided, among other things, is a packaged condom comprising: a sealed package; within the package, an polyisoprene condom; and within the package and substantially coating the condom, a lubricant comprising solvent and one or more sensation-providing agents comprising one or more of vanillyl butyl ether, menthyl lactate, and menthol, wherein the solvent comprises non-water soluble silicone oil and 99% or more of the lubricant by weight is the non-water soluble silicone oil.
1 . A packaged condom comprising:
a sealed package;
within the package, a synthetic polyisoprene condom; and
within the package and substantially coating the condom, a lubricant comprising solvent and one or more sensation-providing agents comprising one or more of vanillyl butyl ether, menthyl lactate, and menthol, wherein the solvent comprises non-water soluble silicone oil and 99% or more of the lubricant by weight is the non-water soluble silicone oil.
2 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein if the lubricant comprises vanillyl butyl ether but neither menthyl lactate nor menthol in effective amounts, then (a) the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil, and (b) the lubricant is essentially free of compounds that enhance the solubility of vanillyl butyl ether in the non-water soluble silicone oil.
3 . The packaged condom claim 1 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise menthyl lactate or menthol.
4 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise menthyl lactate and menthol, wherein the menthol can comprises about 30% to about 45% (wt.) of the total of menthol and menthyl lactate.
5 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise vanillyl butyl ether.
6 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein the sensation-providing agents comprise vanillyl butyl ether, menthyl lactate and menthol.
7 . The packaged condom of claim 6 , wherein the menthol can comprises about 10% to about 30% (wt.) of the total of menthol and menthyl lactate.
8 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil.
9 . The packaged condom of claim 8 , wherein the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil, and that silicone oil consists essentially of silicone compounds with LogP greater than 6 .
10 . The packaged condom of claim 1 , wherein the package comprises a layer of aluminum between condom and an external environment.
11 . A method of packaging condom comprising:
providing an agitated lubricant composition comprising solvent and one or more sensation-providing agents comprising one or more of vanillyl butyl ether, menthyl lactate, and menthol, wherein the solvent comprises non-water soluble silicone oil and 99% or more of the lubricant by weight is the non-water soluble silicone oil;
applying to a synthetic polyisoprene condom a dose of agitated lubricant composition; and
placing the condom within a package and sealing it therein.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein if the lubricant composition comprises vanillyl butyl ether but neither menthyl lactate nor menthol in effective amounts, then (a) the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil, and (b) the lubricant is essentially free of compounds that enhance the solubility of vanillyl butyl ether in the non-water soluble silicone oil.
13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise menthyl lactate or menthol.
14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise menthyl lactate and menthol, wherein the menthol can comprises about 30% to about 45% (wt.) of the total of menthol and menthyl lactate.
15 . The method of claim 11 , wherein sensation-providing agents comprise vanillyl butyl ether.
16 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the sensation-providing agents comprise vanillyl butyl ether, menthyl lactate and menthol.
17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the menthol can comprises about 10% to about 30% (wt.) of the total of menthol and menthyl lactate.
18 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil.
19 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the solvent consists essentially of non-water soluble silicone oil, and that silicone oil consists essentially of silicone compounds with LogP greater than 6 .
20 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the package comprises a layer of aluminum between the condom and an external environment.
