Epic Empusa Dildo Guardian Of Hades: review

Epic Empusa Dildo Guardian Of Hades at a glance — here’s what you get

Epic Empusa Dildo Guardian Of Hades is a massive, textured fantasy dildo made of silicone with a suction cup base and no electronics. It belongs in what retailers call dragon dildos: cast toys with scales, ridges, or other non-realistic structures—often in several colors in the same casting. This model is pink, purple, and blue with glitter embedded in the silicone, and it has a pink suction cup foot.

The specification looks like this according to the manufacturer’s product text: total length 18 centimeters, suction cup base 6.5 centimeters in diameter, and a weight of 316 grams. The material is stated as high-quality liquid silicone that is supposed to be soft, flexible, hypoallergenic, and non-toxic. In addition, the manufacturer provides a dimension sketch that adds four measurements and gives its own picture of the girth—however, and this does not match the product text’s own diameter figure. We go through that contradiction in detail further down, because it is the single most important piece of information to get right before buying a product of this type.

In this market, no store in our data sells the item.

This review applies exclusively to the item with EAN 8435565953638. The number is checked in structured product data, where the sku, mpn, and gtin13 are all 8435565953638 for this specific Epic Empusa Dildo Guardian Of Hades. Across the five stores, the same number is used as the item number in product feeds and listings, and in the manufacturer’s own reference system the item is called EPI53638. So it’s the same product in all five stores—there’s no size or color variant to keep separate.

What is a dragon dildo, and where does Empusa fit into the category?

Dragon dildo is more of a store label than a technical term. It covers cast silicone products with fantasy shapes: a scale-textured surface, ribbed shafts, bumps, multi-color castings, and often a clearly non-human silhouette. One retailer categorizes this item under the heading dildos without vibration, another lists it as dragon dildo and alien dildo, another as dragon dildo and fantasy dildo, and another as dragon dildos. Four retailers, four different category names for the same thing.

Common to the entire category are three things that matter for purchase decisions. The product is solid silicone without a motor, battery, or cable. The surface is structured rather than smooth, which places higher demands on lube. And the dimensions vary extremely within the same label—the item sold as dragon dildo ranges from around fifteen centimeters to over forty.

Empusa is in the lower half of that range in length and in the middle in girth. With a total length of 18 centimeters, it is shorter than Mythical Mates Another World Dildo Pink & Purple, which the manufacturer lists as 22.4 centimeters, and longer than Mythology Kuno Utopia Dildo, which is listed as 15.5 centimeters total with 13 centimeters insertable. What sets Empusa apart in that group is not the length but the mass: 316 grams is a lot for 18 centimeters, and that says something about how thick the material is.

Who makes Epic Empusa? Dreamlove and EPIC Cybersilicock

The brand is called EPIC, and the collection is called EPIC Cybersilicock. The trade press has reported that the collection was launched by the Spanish distributor Dreamlove, and that it consists of silicone dildos and masturbators in a fantasy style with Greek mythology as an ongoing theme throughout. That explains the naming: In Greek mythology, Empusa was a shape-shifting creature in Hades’ retinue, and the sister models in the series are named after things like Cerberus, Kelpie, Sidhe, and Vrakos.

Here, a limitation must be stated openly. Dreamlove has no publicly accessible product page for this item as of the control date—neither dreamlove.eu nor dreamlove.es responded. However, the manufacturer’s own product text is reproduced word-for-word by several European retailers, in Spanish and Portuguese, and it is that text that several retailers have, in turn, translated. Everything that is referred to as the manufacturer’s claims in this review therefore comes from the manufacturer’s product text and product images as published by retailers, not from a dedicated product page on Dreamlove. It’s worth knowing, because that’s precisely where the contradiction in the diameter figure arose.

Measurements: 18 centimeters, 15.5 centimeters shaft—and two different diameters

The measurements are the entire product in an item like this. There is no motor to assess, no battery, no app, and no modes. What determines whether the purchase is a success is the length, thickness, weight, shape, and material—and nothing else. That’s why the focus of this review is specifically on the measurements, and why the contradiction below is a real problem and not a detail.

The dimension sketch that contradicts the store text

The manufacturer publishes a measurement diagram, and it’s more detailed than the product text. The diagram states the total height as 180 millimeters and the shaft length as 155 millimeters, measured from the tip down to where the scrotum area begins. Along the shaft, it indicates three diameters: 40 millimeters at the head, 45 millimeters at the thickest part in the middle of the shaft, and 40 millimeters again just above the scrotum area. The scrotum area measures 65 millimeters across, and the suction cup base is 65 millimeters wide.

However, the manufacturer’s running product text states a maximum diameter of 4.2 centimeters. That figure is repeated in the Spanish original text and in the Portuguese translation. Other listings instead list 4.5 centimeters—and one of them presents it as its own specification field, diameter (max) 4.50 cm.

So it’s the manufacturer’s product text that contradicts the manufacturer’s own measurement diagram, not a store that contradicts the manufacturer. When two pieces of information from the same source conflict, the more specific one weighs more, and the diagram is the more specific one: it lists four separate diameters at different points instead of a single summary value. What can be established is that the diagram’s 45 millimeters is the largest value the manufacturer reports anywhere, and that 4.2 centimeters in the product text does not correspond to any of the four measurements in the diagram.

The difference between 42 and 45 millimeters sounds small, but it isn’t. If you convert the diameters to circumference—circumference is the diameter times pi—42 millimeters corresponds to about 13.2 centimeters and 45 millimeters to about 14.1 centimeters. Nearly a centimeter in circumference is a noticeable difference at this level, and for the buyer who chooses by measurements, it’s the difference between the right and the wrong product. The recommendation is therefore simple: count on 45 millimeters as the largest diameter and treat 4.2 centimeters as an incorrect piece of information in the manufacturer’s running text.

The weight of 316 grams and what it says about the material

The manufacturer states the weight as 316 grams. The information is found in the Spanish original text and reappears in both the Portuguese version and in retailer product data. It’s an unusually useful figure in this category, where most manufacturers skip the weight entirely.

316 grams at 18 centimeters is a lot. Compare it with Fun Factory Limba Flex in size M, which the manufacturer states measures 18 centimeters and Ø 3,2 centimeters with a weight of 169 grams. Same length, then, but less than half the weight — and the explanation lies in the thickness. The volume of a cylinder grows with the square of the diameter, so a shaft that’s just over a centimeter thicker is enough to almost double the mass with the same length unchanged. Even Limba Flex in size L, which is 18,1 centimeters and Ø 4,1 centimeters, stays at 236 grams. Empusa’s 316 grams is therefore more than even that.

What that means in practice is two things. The first is that the product has a clear weight in the hand, which the manufacturer’s own text highlights as an intended purpose rather than a side effect — it describes the weight as balanced and something that provides control. The second is that the suction cup has more to hold against than on a lighter model, which is relevant for the person buying the product specifically so they can use it hands-free.

A note about shop data belongs here. The product description states 316 grams, but in the field “Additional information” the weight is 348 grams and the dimensions are 170 × 60 × 90 millimeters. The two sets of numbers are not the product’s measurements: 170 millimeters is shorter than the product’s own total height of 180 millimeters, and 348 grams is 32 grams above the product weight. In other words, these are shipping and storage fields, not product measurements. They’re presented here because they’re easy to confuse with the specification when you read the product page quickly.

How thick is 4,5 centimeters compared with other dildos?

A measurement without comparison says nothing. Three reference points, all taken from the respective manufacturer’s or the shop’s own information:

• Fun Factory Limba Flex M — 18 centimeters, Ø 3,2 centimeters, 169 grams. Exactly the same length as Empusa, but 13 millimeters narrower.
• Mythology Kuno Utopia Dildo 15,5 cm — 15,5 centimeters overall, 13 centimeters insertable, maximum diameter 4 centimeters. Shorter and 5 millimeters narrower.
• Fun Factory Limba Flex L — 18,1 centimeters, Ø 4,1 centimeters, 236 grams. Closest to Empusa in thickness of the three, but still 4 millimeters under.

Empusa is thus the thickest in the group, and that characteristic is what defines the product. It’s not extremely long — 18 centimeters overall, of which 155 millimeters is shaft according to the dimension sketch — but it’s consistently thick, and the testicle area at 65 millimeters across means that the final section toward the base is wider than the shaft. It’s a shape that provides a natural stop, but it also means that the last few centimeters are not intended to be inserted.

Material: liquid silicone, hypoallergenic, and non-toxic

The material question is the only property of an intimate product that cannot be compensated for with experience or care. It determines whether the product is still hygienic after five years, and on a solid product without electronics, it’s practically the entire durability issue—there’s no battery that ages and no motor that can break down.

Why silicone is the right material for a solid dildo

The manufacturer states the material as high-quality liquid silicone and describes it as soft, flexible, hypoallergenic, and safe for the body. Other product descriptions add that it is non-toxic, and describe it as soft, flexible, and very elastic silicone. The manufacturer’s own characteristic graphic labels the product “supersoft silicone” and “fully flexible”.

Silicone is a non-porous material. A non-porous surface can be cleaned, because there are no microscopic cavities where residues can remain. It is the single most important property of a material intended to lie against the mucous membrane. On a molded product without seams, a battery compartment, or a bonded joint, the benefit is even clearer than on an electronic product: there is no gap where anything can collect, and the entire surface can be accessed.

The term liquid silicone—silicona líquida in the original text—refers to the casting method. The silicone is poured in liquid form into a mold and cures there, which is what makes multi-colored castings with a glitter effect possible. It’s a material description that says something about appearance and the manufacturing method, but nothing about hardness. It’s an important difference from, for example, medical silicone, which is a purity designation.

Phthalates, BPA, and latex—what is declared and what isn’t

Phthalates are a group of plasticizers used to make plastic—especially soft PVC—flexible. The Chemical Inspectorate describes them as substances that can affect the hormonal system and make reproduction more difficult, and several of them are therefore restricted or prohibited within the EU in a large number of products. This product category is a recurring subject of supervision, precisely because it contains soft plastic against skin and mucous membrane.

Here, it’s a matter of distinguishing between what actually is stated and what people would like to read into it. The manufacturer does not make an explicit phthalate, BPA, or latex declaration for Empusa. What is stated is that the material is hypoallergenic and non-toxic, which is weaker and more generally worded than a declaration that lists which groups of substances are not included. None of the five retailers fills in that gap either.

At the same time, the material specification itself is a better indication than almost any other piece of information in a product specification at this price point. Silicone does not require phthalate plasticizers to become soft—its softness comes from the polymer’s own structure—and therefore a product that is clearly stated to be silicone is in a different situation than one described as TPE or jelly rubber, terms that say absolutely nothing about which plasticizers are included. That the manufacturer still doesn’t print out the declaration is a weakness in the documentation, not a sign that the material would be worse than stated.

Hardness that nobody publishes

No shore hardness is published for Empusa, either by the manufacturer or by the stores selling it in this market. What exists is descriptive wording: supersoft, fully flexible, soft, and very elastic. Those words can’t be compared between products, because each manufacturer sets its own scale.

There’s a real shortcoming in a product with this thickness. Hardness determines how a 45-millimeter diameter is actually perceived—a soft cast that gives way behaves completely differently from a firm one of the same size. Compare with Mythical Mates Another World, where the manufacturer at least prints the description “firm yet flexible” and thereby places the product on the firmer end. Empusa’s labeling “supersoft” points in the opposite direction, but without a shore value, both pieces of information are essentially marketing language.

The suction cup: 65 millimeters and what it can handle

The base is a suction cup, and the manufacturer states its diameter as 6.5 centimeters in the product text. The dimension sketch confirms the same figure: 65 millimeters across the foot. The manufacturer’s own detail image labels it “strong suction cup”. In this market, no shop in our data sells it.

A suction cup of 65 millimeters is at the larger end for a product of this size. It matters here specifically because of the weight: 316 grams is significantly more than an average dildo of the same length, and all that mass hangs on the foot’s adhesion when the product stands on a vertical or angled surface. A larger footprint provides more contact area and thus more to resist with.

Hands-free use and surfaces that work

The manufacturer’s wording is that the suction-cup base attaches easily to smooth surfaces and enables stable hands-free use. The key word is smooth. A suction cup works by pressing the air out between the foot and the surface, and that requires a surface without pores and without texture. Tile, tempered glass, painted wood, enamel, and smooth plastic work. Untreated wood, clinker with routed joints, matte wall paints, and textiles do not.

What can be established is that the manufacturer neither publishes any information about how long the foot lasts nor provides any instructions for how it should be attached. None of the stores fill in that either. The general advice for suction cups therefore applies here: dry the surface first, press out the air by pressing straight down in the middle of the foot, and don’t rely on the attachment in a position where a release could cause injury.

Does Epic Empusa work with a harness?

The manufacturer makes no harness claim for Empusa. Neither the product text nor the shops we found in this market states that the product is harness-compatible. That’s a clear difference from the comparison product Mythical Mates Another World, where the manufacturer explicitly writes that the dildo can be used together with a harness, and where the statement is repeated as its own point on the product page.

In terms of construction, you can say this much: an O-ring type harness requires a base that is wider than the ring, and a narrower section directly above that the ring can close around. Empusa has a wide suction cup foot measuring 65 millimeters, but directly above it there is a scrotum part which, according to the dimension sketch, also measures 65 millimeters across. There is therefore no neck between the foot and the scrotum part. If you want a fantasy dildo for harness use, you should look for a model with published harness compatibility—not this one.

Usage: the texture, the lubricant, and the practical limits

The shaft is structured all the way through. The manufacturer’s close-up shows a mountain-patterned surface with transverse ribs that run the entire way from the tip down to the base, and the multi-colored molded casting with glitter follows the same structure. One retailer summarizes it as textured for extra stimulation, and another describes it as a unique stimulating texture.

A textured surface has a practical consequence that rarely shows up in the product texts: it binds lubricant worse than a smooth surface, because the liquid collects in the grooves instead of lying as an even film. So expect to need more lubricant and to top up more often than with a smooth model of the same size. This applies especially to a product with this kind of roughness, where friction becomes higher right from the start.

Which lubricant works with Epic Empusa?

Water-based. A silicone-based lubricant should not be used on silicone products—it breaks down the silicone surface over time and makes it porous, and a porous surface can’t be cleaned properly anymore; it can only be replaced. Oil-based products such as coconut oil leave a film that’s difficult to remove and that collects dirt in the texture.

The manufacturer does not publish any lubricant recommendation for Empusa, and none of the stores we checked does either on this product page. However, it is possible to substantiate that it is exactly this rule that applies in the same product range: on Mythology Kuno Utopia, another silicone dildo with a suction cup from the same Spanish manufacturer family, the retailer description states that the product is made from flexible and skin-friendly silicone and is therefore only compatible with water-based lubricants. The same material logic applies to Empusa.

Can Epic Empusa be used anally?

Here the answer has to be cautious, because the basis is thin. The manufacturer does not state any intended use for Empusa — neither vaginal nor anal is mentioned in the product text. Retailers place it differently: one places it under dragon dildo and alien dildo, another under dragon dildo, fantasy dildo and silicone dildo, another under dildos and dildos for her, and another under dildos without vibration. None of them states anything about anal use.

Compare again with Mythical Mates Another World, where the manufacturer explicitly states that the product is suitable for both anal and vaginal stimulation. That difference in documentation is the whole point: one manufacturer takes a position, the other does not.

What can be established purely in terms of construction is that Empusa has a broad base — the suction-cup foot at 65 millimeters is the widest point on the entire product according to the dimension sketch — and that the genital area above it functions as an additional stop. The basic prerequisite that is usually applied to anal products, that the base should be clearly wider than what is inserted, is therefore met geometrically. But this is our interpretation of a dimension sketch, not a commitment from the manufacturer, and anyone who buys the product for anal use should know that the manufacturer has not taken a position.

Cleaning, waterproofing, and storage

The manufacturer publishes no care instructions and no manual for Empusa, and none of the five stores reproduces any. That in itself is worth noting: the only care information that comes with the product, as far as it is possible to see from the manufacturer’s published material, is the three words of the feature graphic.

What “waterproof” means when there is no IP rating

The manufacturer’s feature graphic labels the product “waterproof”, with an umbrella as the icon. No enclosure class is given. No IP rating according to IEC 60529 has been published for this product, either by the manufacturer or by any store.

In this case, it’s less serious than it sounds, and the reason is worth understanding. An IP rating describes how well an enclosure protects electrical equipment against penetrating water. Empusa has no electrical equipment at all: it’s a solid silicone cast with no motor, battery, charging port, or seams. There simply isn’t anything for water to penetrate, and therefore there’s no natural reason for the manufacturer to have it classified. Compare with the listing for Mythology Kuno Utopia, where the product description says waterproof: yes without also stating any rating there.

Practically, this means the entire product can be rinsed under running water without any precautions. What you should not do, however, is conclude that it can handle anything: silicone doesn’t tolerate unlimited heat, and without manufacturer instructions there’s no information about any upper temperature limit for this specific cast.

How do you clean a dildo made of liquid silicone?

Rinse the product in lukewarm water after each use and use an unscented soap or a cleaning product intended for intimate products. The textured surface is the part that requires the most attention: the grooves between the scales hold on to both lubricant and cleaning product, so rinse longer than what feels necessary and draw your fingers along the texture while you rinse. Wipe it dry and let it air-dry completely before putting the product away.

Storage is the other half of care, and it’s often overlooked. Silicone attracts dust and lint, and a multi-colored cast with glitter on the surface makes it no less so. Store the product in a fabric bag or in its own box, not loose in a box with other items. Also don’t leave it pressed against soft plastic for long periods—plasticizers can migrate between materials and leave marks on the surface. No storage bag is included in the delivery unless the manufacturer publishes; the delivery contents are not disclosed at all, either by the manufacturer or by any of the five shops.

Epic Empusa compared with the alternatives

Three comparisons are relevant: against a smaller model from the same Spanish manufacturer family, against a larger fantasy dildo from a manufacturer that documents more, and against an established European silicone manufacturer that publishes complete dimensions and weights. All details below come from the respective manufacturer’s or shop’s own specifications.

Against Mythology Kuno Utopia 15.5 cm — same manufacturer family, five millimeters narrower

Mythology Kuno Utopia Dildo has item number 8435565935504, i.e. the same EAN prefix 8435565 as Empusa—so it’s the same Spanish source. The listing lists the total length as 15.5 centimeters, the insertable length as 13 centimeters, and the maximum diameter as 4 centimeters, with silicone as the material, a suction cup as the base type, and waterproof: yes.

The differences are concrete. Empusa is 2.5 centimeters longer in total and, if you go by the measurement sketch’s 45 millimeters, 5 millimeters thicker. Kuno Utopia, on the other hand, has something Empusa lacks: a published insertable length. 13 out of 15.5 centimeters is insertable according to the product listing, so that’s a 2.5-centimeter base. For Empusa, the corresponding figure only exists indirectly, through the measurement sketch’s 155-millimeter shaft out of a total 180 millimeters.

Conclusion: if you want the same design language in a smaller size and with a clearer measurement breakdown, Kuno Utopia is both cheaper and better documented. If you want the thickness and the 316 grams, Empusa is the only one of the two that delivers that.

Against Mythical Mates Another World 22.4 cm — longer, and significantly better documented

Mythical Mates Another World Dildo Pink & Purple has article number MYMA003 and EAN 8719934017603, and the manufacturer states the total length as 22.4 centimeters already in the product name. It’s described as firm yet flexible, has a strong suction cup, and is explicitly stated to be suitable for both anal and vaginal stimulation as well as for use together with a harness/strap. The shop lists waterproof: yes and base-type suction cup.

This comparison is less about dimensions and more about documentation. Another World has three commitments that Empusa completely lacks: a hardness description, intended use area, and compatibility with a harness/strap. Empusa, in turn, has two things that Another World lacks: a published weight and a measurement sketch with diameters at four separate points.

What makes Another World hard to beat in context is the price. For a product that’s 4.4 centimeters longer and has more published information, Empusa needs to be justified based on thickness and the color scheme—not the spec on paper.

Against Fun Factory Limba Flex M — same length, two-thirds of the diameter

Fun Factory Limba Flex is the direct opposite of a dragon dildo: smooth, one color, and with a bendable core that makes the product keep the shape you bend it into. The manufacturer publishes measurements and weight for all three sizes—S is 12 centimeters and Ø 3 centimeters with a weight of 111 grams, M is 18 centimeters and Ø 3.2 centimeters with a weight of 169 grams, and L is 18.1 centimeters and Ø 4.1 centimeters with a weight of 236 grams. The material is described as body-friendly, pore-free, and hypoallergenic.

Size M is the interesting comparison, because it’s exactly the same length as Empusa: 18 centimeters. The diameter, however, is 3.2 centimeters versus Empusa’s 4.5, and the weight is 169 grams versus 316. It’s the same length in two completely different formats, and it illustrates how little the length measurement alone says about a dildo.

What Limba Flex shows is also what a complete specification looks like: three sizes with both length, diameter, and weight listed in a table, plus a material description that mentions pore-free quality. That’s the level Empusa is measured against when we assess the documentation, and it’s this comparison that pulls down the rating specifically on that point.

Who is Epic Empusa for—and who isn’t it for?

It’s for you if you know you want a thicker product rather than a longer one. The largest diameter of 45 millimeters on a 155 millimeter-long shaft is a clear profile, and 316 grams of silicone is more material than you get in most models of the same length. It’s for you who want a fantasy shape with an all-through structure and multi-colored casting rather than something realistic, and for you who want to be able to stand the product on a smooth surface and use it hands-free — the suction-cup base at 65 millimeters is on the larger end for the size.

It’s also for you who prefer a product without electronics. No motor means no battery that loses capacity, no charging cable to misplace, and nothing that can stop working after the warranty period. On a solid silicone casting, the material sets the lifespan, and silicone ages slowly.

It doesn’t fit you if you buy by exact measurements and want them to be correct the first time. The manufacturer’s own product text and the manufacturer’s own dimensional sketch give different largest diameters, and the one who doesn’t read both risks ordering based on 4.2 centimeters and getting 45 millimeters. It doesn’t fit you if you need a harness-compatible dildo, because that claim isn’t made anywhere, and the shape lacks a neck between the foot area and the scrotum area. It doesn’t fit you if you want a shore value, a phthalate declaration, or a lubricant usage instruction from the manufacturer before purchase — none of that is published. And it doesn’t fit you if you’re looking for the most length per purchase: Mythical Mates Another World is 4.4 centimeters longer.

What the manufacturer does not publish

A summary is in order, because the absence of information is the clearest feature in this specification. The following is not published by the manufacturer, and not by any of the five retailers either:

• Shore hardness — just the words supersoft, fully flexible, and very elastic.
• Phthalate, BPA, or latex declaration — only hypoallergenic and non-toxic.
• Insertable length as an explicit measurement — only the dimensional sketch’s 155-millimeter shaft.
• Intended use — neither vaginal nor anal is stated.
• Harness compatibility — no claim is made.
• Package contents — nothing is listed.
• Manual, care instructions, and lubricant recommendation — completely missing.
• IP rating according to IEC 60529 — just the waterproof marking in a product graphic.
• Manufacturer warranty — no warranty period is stated anywhere.

Against that stands what the manufacturer actually publishes, and which is more than many competitors in the price range: total length, shaft length, four diameters shown on the sketch, base diameter, material information, and a product weight. It’s uneven documentation rather than bad — the measurements are unusually detailed, everything else unusually thin.

Legal guarantee, complaints, and the 14-day right of withdrawal

No manufacturer warranty is published for Epic Empusa. Neither the manufacturer’s product text, the brand text for EPIC Cybersilicock, nor any of the five retailers’ product pages states any warranty period. It’s not unusual in this category of non-electronic products, but it should be noted: on a product without a motor, it would be the molding and the material that could be covered, and there is no commitment to rely on it.

What does apply, however, at all times, are your statutory rights, and they are independent of what the manufacturer promises. In the EU and EEA, the seller is liable for defects that exist at delivery and appear within at least 2 years (the legal guarantee). A defect here can be a crack in the molding, a suction cup that lets go right from the start, or a deviation from the dimensions the store has stated—the person who orders based on a specified maximum diameter of 4.2 centimeters and receives 45 millimeters has a reasonable basis to contact the store.

For online purchases in the EU and EEA, consumers generally have a 14-day right of withdrawal, starting when the goods are received. Under EU rules, sealed goods that are not suitable for return for health or hygiene reasons are exempt from the right of withdrawal once unsealed. The right to complain about defects always applies.
