Sorry I don't know Esperanto.
Sexational is an invented word that combines Sensational (marvellous, amazing) with Sex.
Luv Gel is a phonetic spelling of Love Gel, which is probably a lubricant to enhance the experience of sex.

: Esperanto must be next after English and people hit it by mistake. I answered one a couple of weeks ago for someone I'm sure didn't want Esperanto.

: Luv Gel may be the name of the lubricant - not sure as I don't frequent these types of establishments.

sensational
probably a pun on "sensational", using "sex" as it was a sex store.

sexually + sensational = sexational
About as brilliant an invention as California + fornication that obtained "Californication", a song with a one-word lyric that made the Top Ten somehow.
