The most important thing you have to ask yourself is who is your audience? How specific you incorporate sex in your story depends a lot on that. If you are writing for teenagers our Young Adults, you would use a lot less specific sex scenes. But if you are writing for a very mature audience, you can use more specific scenes and incorporate the sex a lot more.

The second question you have to ask yourself is what you want your genre to be. If you want to write a partly erotic novel, then you can easily do a lot with your combination of magic and sex. But if you don't want your novel to be classified as erotic, you need to be a lot more subtle. The best way to be subtle is to never actively have sex scenes in your novel. Don't make it happen in front of the readers eyes. Instead, make your characters mention it when suitable, not describing it as a whole, but by letting the readers pierce it together bit by bit. At some part a woman can mention having used her magic in a very interesting way last night. You can have men talk about how some of them are really good with their magic in bed. Or, being scared of woman because of that. Just make sure it will come around as natural in your conversations, and don't put it in the spotlights too much.

You can still incorporate some sex scenes in your novel, but if that is not important for you, just leave them out. Or have people go to bed, skip to the next day and make them say how much fun they were having.

And a last thing, imagination is good. Most of the time these things specifically are better being mostly left to the imagination than completely fleshing it out and writing down every single detail, including what the characters feel. Just compare it to real life. Will anyone ever be able to write it better than you can feel it? Not really. So if you still try that, it will always feel a bit disapointing. If you give your readers the space to add in their own feelings and thoughts, it will feel a lot more real.
