Pros: |
- One of those sites that slipped under my radar. Hardcore content mostly and features some of the greatest models ever.
- 143 models and some of the names will surprise some of those that have been around porn for 10+ years. Will go into in bottom line.
- Over 500 scenes, but there are non-downloadable bonus scenes mixed in, will try to get a more accurate number in bottom line.
- All scenes have the same video options of 540p, 720p and 1080p.
- Over 200 photo sets, the navigation is making it hard to count them. The photos are downloadable and are 4000 long end.
- Updates 3 photo sets and 3 videos per month.
- Navigation is good except for a few small glitches. |
Cons: |
- Way too many bonus scenes mixed into the regular updates. The numbers in bottom line will show it. Those are full scenes and can be streamed fully but it's frustrating when you see one you like and realize you can't download it.
- It's either a site that has some old videos they've released as newer or some of the top models of the 2006-2011 have came out of retirement.
- Promoted public scenes in the preview. I haven't seen one public scene and the search box shows none. |
Bottom Line: |
This site belongs to producer Nathan Blake and he promotes it as high quality, tasteful HD porn. That's usually a bad sign!
I'm going to start with what was the easy selling point for me. The models. The Euro star that I once said had the most beautiful eyes in porn, Aleska Diamond. I haven't seen a scene with her in awhile. She has 8 videos and 6 picture sets, also noticed she now has implants and has cut her hair shorter.
Cameron Cruise, a hidden gem of a model that Viv Thomas made into a big star for about 1 year back in maybe 2009. She just has 1 video here but I thought she retired long ago.
Sandra Shine, one of the original members of the Euro group called "The no take dick six". She has 4 photo sets and 2 videos. Both are listed as 2016. Everything I've ever found about her was she retired in 2011-2012.
The one that I didn't think had retired but hadn't seen much content of lately, Simony Diamond,arguably one of my top 3-4 actresses from the Euro porn boom of 2006-2011. She has 10 photo sets and 9 videos here. Much like Aleska, but likely for different reasons, Simony now has implants. Her scenes are the best on this site including the "typical" Simony of taking on 2-3 guys at a time.
The most pleasant surprise was seeing Yoah Galvez, an underused model, she has 5 photo sets and 4 videos.
There are others as well like Laura Lion, Aletta Ocean, Angel Rivas, Christina Bella and maybe 20 more that were once major stars but fell off when the American Network sites took control of the porn world.
The quality on videos is very good unless you're wanting 4K. The photos at 4000 long end with downloadable zips are again well above industry standards.
Which leads to what I'll call the bad part. There's a lot of porn fans today that won't have any idea who these models are. For the fans from Euro Boom era they'll know nearly all of the models.
The problem with the bonus scenes:
The videos are lined in rows of 4 horizontal and 10 vertical. Half are bonus scenes. That's 2 per horizontal row of 4. These are not tricky bonus scenes trying to get you to click on them to lead you into joining another site. They are full streaming scenes. There is an advertisement below them but it's not trying to trick you.
Still, half the scenes are not downloadable. If you notice the photo sets have over 200 and the videos are just over 500, you could cut that video number in half and see that there's really just 200+ downloadable videos here.
This is one of the toughest calls when it comes to recommending it. For me, the Aleska Diamond, Simony Diamond and Yoah Galvez scenes were worth a membership. Sandra Shine's scenes are somewhat flat which is consistent with how her career went as she seemed to lose interest after getting married. The Cameron Cruise scene is very good and somewhat rare. Cameron's best known scenes were lesbian scenes with Eve Angel and Sophie Moone. This one on Elegant Raw is a male/female scene. I don't think I had ever seen her do a male/female scene before it.
I think that is the recommendation. If you're familiar with these models and liked their work in the past here's a chance to see how they're doing now. If you're not familiar with these models there's probably not a lot here that you'll like as it will look like normal porn. They do have a mix of male/female, group, solo and lesbian scenes, very similar to how the old Euro sites were. I'm not going real high on the score since outside of those I listed, I didn't have much interest in the other content.
Good site overall that would be better if they had a filter to remove all those bonus scenes. |
