Maureen Matthews is an amazing woman. At the age of 23, Maureen was diagnosed with an illness that would eventually take her vision. This didn't stop her from becoming one of the first changemakers of the adult industry in Australia when she opened a store that focussed on couples and female sexuality. Maureen also went on to write a weekly column for the Sydney Morning Herald called 'About Last Night'.
In my chat with Maureen, we cover many topics such as maintaining communication and passion during a relationship; resources for exploring and developing sexuality and older-age sexuality. It's worth a listen!

Change of Mind
Unlike shopping for a new dress or shirt where it’s easy to exchange or refund goods, the purchase of a pleasure device makes it very difficult to process returns.
Our Maven understands that sometimes what a product looks like on screen isn’t quite what is expected on the box when it arrives. If this is the case, please do not open the packaging. Instead, you must notify The Spicy Boudoir within three days of receipt of the product by writing to: hello@thespicyboudoir.com with ‘Change of mind return’ in the subject line. Please note that the costs of return and resending delivery costs are borne by the customer.
Please provide your contact details and a team member will call you to discuss the options available to you. Change of mind requests outside the three day timeframe cannot be accepted.*
Options available:
Return for exchange of similar product or products to equal value (depending on availability)
Return for store credit
Return for refund of product purchase*
