The functionality is identical for all poppers varieties. The best way to sniff them is via a sniffer cap or directly from the bottle. However, there are differences between the **different types of poppers**. Which is why we want to present them to you in detail. ## Amyl nitrite: the historical original In the 1970s, poppers based on amyl nitrite experienced their heyday. What actually sits in EU bottles today, however, is isopropyl nitrite. Nowadays, it is not only gays who use poppers to manoeuvre themselves into a veritable frenzy of pleasure within a few seconds. One of the special features of poppers based on amyl nitrite is that the high lasts a little longer than is the case with other varieties. They are therefore particularly suitable for men with experience who have already tried other poppers and are looking for a stronger kick. It is the type the 1970s scene was built on. ## Poppers made from pentyl nitrite are the bestsellers These poppers provide euphoria and a direct kick. Pentyl nitrite poppers are perfect for anyone who wants to achieve an intense yet easily tolerated effect. If you have not yet had any poppers experience, you will benefit from the well-balanced and familiar properties. An almost ecstatic feeling of unrestrained pleasure is not long in coming after a courageous sniff. Though the high is intense, it doesn’t send you straight to nirvana, so you still get to experience something of your kinky encounter. After all, you’re sniffing to party or to get your lover really kinky while intoxicated. ## Poppers with pentanol nitrite intensify Pentanol nitrite is often a component of amyl nitrite. It also occurs in combination with pentyl. These horny, hybrid poppers offer an intense rum-smoking experience. The combination of these two molecules creates a synergy of effects: Pentanol, with its energising and stimulating properties, intensifies the euphoric effect and prolongs the duration of the high. The effect sets in fast, and it is described as a body that feels distinctly looser and as touch that comes in closer. It is recommended for experienced users and ideal for intensifying sensations in all kinky encounters and practices, including extreme ones such as [fisting](https://gay-blog.tomrockets.com/en/fisting-stretching/ "fisting") and [BDSM](https://gay-blog.tomrockets.com/en/bdsm-fetish-kink/ "BDSM"). ## Poppers made from propyl nitrite have varying degrees of intensity These poppers are praised for their properties. Instead of experiencing a rush of euphoria, users feel more relaxed and uninhibited. [Shame](https://gay-blog.tomrockets.com/en/shame/ "Shame") is reduced piece by piece, and you are able to open yourself wide to your lover and become a will-less butt slut. Tops also get their money’s worth with Poppers made of propyl nitrite, and sink their hard balls into their partner’s luscious bum with even more abandon. ## The banned variety of butyl nitrite is no longer available The older generation among you will certainly have heard of butyl nitrite-based poppers. Enthusiasts are convinced that no other variety has such an intense effect, but the product is too strong for most users. Due to potential side effects, the products have been banned throughout the EU. You have not been allowed to buy these poppers since 2017. No need to worry, there are great alternatives that can give you that extra kick while fucking. ## Where can I buy different types of poppers? At most parties, there’s a guy somewhere on the corner who wants to sell you poppers. Our advice: Hands off! Poppers (when consumed safely) are a popular intoxicant among men. However, if you don’t know the ingredients, side effects are a problem that should not be underestimated.
