Fantasy dildos: dragons, tentacles, and mythical creatures — the ultimate buying guide

Gode fantaisie tentacule vert Epic Cetus

They're called Cetus, Lilith, Charybdis or Basilisk. They're green, iridescent, sculpted. Fantasy dildos — dragons, tentacles and other mythical creatures — form a category of their own. Here's how to choose yours without getting it wrong.

Why fantasy dildos are so popular

A realistic sex toy imitates. A fantasy dildo, on the other hand, invents. Its shapes, inspired by imaginary creatures, offer textures a classic toy doesn't have: graduated scales, tentacle spirals, generous bases, sculpted reliefs. Every curve is designed for sensation, not for resemblance.

There's also the object itself: colourful, almost artistic, unapologetic. It's a category people often choose as much for the object as for its use.

Choosing well: the 3 criteria that matter

1. Size — start small

This is the golden rule. Fantasy dildos often come in two or three sizes, and the largest is designed for experienced users. If it's your first, take the smallest: the textures already do all the work. At L'Établi, the Epic models start at €29.95 in their smallest size.

2. Material — silicone, full stop

A toy that comes into contact with mucous membranes must be made of silicone: non-porous, easy to clean. All the fantasy dildos we stock are made of silicone — never PVC or "jelly". With silicone, use a water-based lubricant: a silicone lubricant applied to a silicone toy ends up damaging its surface. The subject is covered in detail in water or silicone, which one to choose.

3. The base — suction cup and stability

A wide base means safety — essential for anal use — and versatility: most of our models stand upright and can be used hands-free thanks to their suction cup.

Care: quick and simple

Before and after each use: lukewarm water and mild soap (or a special toy cleaner), complete drying, storage away from dust and separate from other toys. Silicone lasts for years when it's well looked after — the full method is in cleaning and caring for your sex toy.

The questions we get asked

Is it discreet to order? Yes: a 100% neutral parcel, with no mention of the contents or the shop.

Is it for beginners? Provided you choose a small size and go at your own pace, with plenty of lubricant.

What budget should you plan for? Our fantasy models range from €29.95 to €129.95 for the vibrating remote-controlled versions. Delivery is free from €99 — and with no minimum at all on our discovery kits, which bring together a toy, a second accessory and lubricant for less than buying them separately.
