      When you use the item she gives you, you get increased damage negation and poise for like half a minute, which is somewhat useful during boss fights. But I think most people use it immediately so they can get another hug.

      Edit: just checked, it only lasts for 15 seconds, so it's a pretty situational item

        You can get another hug even if you still have that item in your inventory

        i remember people liking perseverance in dark souls 3 and this looks like that but an item instead of a weapon (and longer) so it's probably good

          Ya, but you could activate perseverance anytime, you can only use this item once and then you have to go back to get a hug before you can use it again.

          I'm also biased since I usually play light dodge-heavy characters but the only time I would think of using it is at the end of a boss fight when I want to dish out five uninterrupted blows and just finish the fight. And even with the damage reduction I might not survive with my fashion-souls armor.
