Lelo Enigma Double Sonic Review
My Verdict
Once upon a time, I experimented with a traditional rabbit vibrator, but it was like using a jackhammer to tickle a cat, just wasn't going to happen. The clitoral stimulator was so far away that it couldn't reach the right spot unless the other arm was practically spelunking. So, I decided these types of toys were not my cup of tea, assuming my anatomy was incompatible with their design. But then, having positive experiences with other LELO toys, maybe, just maybe this brand is onto something and I should try again. And wouldn't you know it I was right! The ENIGMA's unique selling point is that you don't have to send the vibrator on a deep-sea expedition to find your G-spot, as it's unique shape settles instantly in the place between your G spot and your A spot. Normally, I don't need any internal stimulation to enjoy an orgasm, but I am now convinced that having both the internal and external pleasure spots stimulated simultaneously is like adding a cherry on top of an already delightful sundae. A toe-curling, leg-shaking special kind of fun, if you catch my drift.

About The Lelo Enigma Double Sonic
The Enigma Double Sonic, like all of LELO toys, is just gorgeous - it features smooth curves and an ergonomically designed handle that's easy on the eyes. It's not the most dainty of toys, but it's attractive nonetheless, considering the multitasking this little machine takes on. The handle is flanked by a lovely iridescent panel with a clitoral stimulator at the back, which houses a motor producing SenSonic waves for contactless clitoral stimulation (my personal favorite toy type). From the handle, it bends into a smooth insertable tip. This is powered by a separate motor as well and features a soft pad, which emits DeepSonic waves to target the A-spot. The tip of the arm vibrates to stimulate the G-spot. Like I said, multitasking to the max.
The vibrations of the Lelo Enigma Double Sonic are fairly quiet, extremely powerful, and somewhat rumbly
Pros
- ✅Ergonomic and easy to use
- ✅Impressive range of settings
- ✅Bluetooth app compatible
Cons
- ❌A bit of a learning curve
- ❌A little bulky compared to similar toys

Personal Experience
Whenever I have the chance to test a toy from LELO, I’m thrilled. Their brand has become synonymous with quality, luxury, and consistent orgasms for me. The Enigma Double Sonic definitely lived up to my expectations in all these aspects! From the moment I received the shipping box, I was already impressed (although I must admit, I’ve been excited about this toy since I first saw it on their website). So opening the Enigma was basically like having sexy Christmas in July.
All I Want for Christmas is… Nothing But This Toy
Listen, I’m not too proud to say it, this toy beat me. And I mean that in the best way possible. I wasn’t even fully set on a vibration intensity before I came the first time. It was almost embarrassing. I felt like a high schooler in an American Pie movie “This doesn’t normally happen.. I promise next time will be better”.. .Okay, maybe it wasn’t that dramatic. But still, the ENIGMA had me to a climax before I could process what was going on. I knew I was a bit more sensitive than my other female comrades, but I didn’t realize I was THAT sensitive.Take Two!.. or Five…or Six
With that almost embarrassing display of sensitivity, I was determined to try again. I’m not normally able to climax multiple times in a row, but now I’m starting to realize it’s all about where the stimulation is located and for how long. With the Enigma Double Sonic’s insane ability to stimulate not one, but three different spots, I’ve since learned I CAN in fact climax multiple times in a row. Go me, right?Just Some Things to Note
I will mention, getting the device to pair to the app and getting the app figured out was a bit of a learning curve. I feel like I most definitely would have benefitted from sitting down and exploring it first. But I’m an adventurer (okay, I have ADHD) and I like to just figure things out as I go. Another thing I noticed is there isn’t a full instruction manual in the box. You are very much prompted to visit LELO’s website for instructions on how to use the device itself. Not a deal breaker, but I do think there should be at least pamphlet that hits the main points of operation. I’m not saying this is the best vibrator I’ve ever used. But I’m not NOT saying that. I AM saying… I’ll be reaching for the Enigma Double Sonic for the foreseeable future, and I really think you should too.Design
LELO consistently produces stunning and practical toys that have never disappointed me, and the Enigma is certainly no exception. Its curved design is ideal, accommodating any internal anatomy while providing delightful sensations. The body-safe silicone used in its construction is not only soft and smooth but also feels as luxurious as its price tag suggests.
Ease of Use
Operating the Double Sonic is quite easy, after you get it figured out, thanks to the three buttons positioned on the inside of the handle. The central button turns the device on and off when held for three seconds. Pressing it quickly will toggle you through eight different settings. Press the top button to increase intensity and the bottom one to reduce. Press both + and – at the same time to trigger the travel lock and prevent any awkward moments when in transit. You can also bluetooth to the LELO app for more options, but I'll cover that more under "Special Features".
Quality
I've come to realize that LELO consistently delivers exceptional quality. The Enigma Double Sonic, although not the most discreet toy available, is undoubtedly one of the top choices for me. From its packaging to the storage bag and the toy itself, LELO embodies the essence of luxurious pleasure products in my opinion.
Price
The Enigma, priced at a substantial $349 on LELO's website, is certainly not a budget-friendly option. However, considering LELO's reputation for luxury, the price point doesn't come as a shock. Once you start using this toy, it's pretty clear why it's worth every penny. It comes with a USB charger and a very soft storage bag, as storing a silicone toy without protection, especially one as valuable as this, is not the best idea. We want to protect our investments, right?
Performance
If I were to give the Enigma a label, it would undoubtedly be "workhorse." After all, what other toy in the market provides three points of stimulation simultaneously? Clitoral, G-spot, and A-spot. Heck, I hadn't even heard of the term "A-spot" before receiving this toy. Whatever LELO's design team is doing, they certainly deserve a raise! I've never experienced a vibrator that works as efficiently and quickly as this toy. I'll even happily overlook the slightly loud motors, because without them, this absolute gift of a toy wouldn't function.
Packaging
My favorite aspect of luxury toys is their luxurious packaging. It seems that the higher the price point, the more elegant the packaging becomes. As someone who values aesthetics, I prefer packaging that is subtle and classy rather than overtly sexual. LELO consistently delivers pretty, sleek, and classy packaging. The Double Sonic arrived nestled in a sleek, black box with a large front window that beautifully showcased the toy itself. The back of the box featured clear, gold text providing information about the toy, materials, warranty details, and other essentials. Overall, the packaging was impeccable,10/10.
Materials and care
The Lelo Enigma Double Sonic is beautifully made from body-safe silicone and ABS plastic, making it completely waterproof and effortless to clean. Simply use warm soapy water or a spray of your preferred toy cleaner, pat it dry, and gently place it in its soft storage bag and you're all set!
Special feature
To fully maximize your Enigma Double Sonic experience, you need to download the LELO app and connect the toy via Bluetooth (with the app open and Bluetooth on, press the center button until it blinks, and it will connect). Once connected, you’ll see a “play” option and a “settings” option. In the “settings” section, you can customize the 8 preset vibration patterns, adjust the toy’s “auto-off” timeframe, or reset it to factory defaults. When you’re ready to explore the “play” menu, you’ll find three control options. You can adjust the toy’s intensity by tilting your phone, shaking it, or manually setting the vibration and patterns under the “manual” option. Additionally, there are “advanced mode” menu options that include “Finish me off” and “Out of control” modes.
