If we're just talking pervert stuff instead of specifically incest, there's the thing from Chapterhouse where they "awake" the mind of a dead person they put into a child's body by the bene gesserit having sex with them. (This is a super old memory so may be misremembering specifics)

You're almost entirely correct. They clone individuals (gholas) and raise them in "tanks" which are basically women in a much worse situation than Handmaid's Tale. The clone in question was Teg Atreides who was the Bashar (General) for the Bene Gesserit. They normally awakened memories in gholas through stress but he was very young when they needed him to manage their forces. There was a suggestion about using sex instead which produced a long moral discussion about the use of sex vs violence. They went with sex and it worked.
