Ex Idolo Lucid Dream is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Lucid Dream opens with Davana, Citrus, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Smoke, Rose, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Incense. Ex Idolo's Lucid Dream carries an Acquired verdict, a smoky-led wear.

This one's a divisive trip, oscillating between a smoky, leathery opening and a candied, fruity rose heart. Some find it beautiful and mysterious, others a cloying headache or simply unremarkable. Definitely not a blind buy.

About

Lucid Dream opens with a sharp, almost gasoline-like puff of smoke and pink pepper, quickly ushering in a juicy davana and sweet osmanthus. The heart unfurls into a soft, airy rose that blends seamlessly with the lingering smoke. As it dries, hints of patchouli and incense ground the playful, candy-like sweetness, creating a persistent, intriguing floral-fruit-smoke narrative that evolves on the skin.
