Rating: I got this on request, and didn't expect to like it as much as I do. I actually love it! I was initially wanting to mix it to create a custom blend, but it smells so good by itself that I don't want to change it at all. It smells like sweet cucumber with this tart, acidic kind of smell that is almost fruity. It would make a lovely body spray or lotion. I will be making several products with this fragrance. This will for sure be a repurchase for me.
Rating: Smells nice in the bottle. However, it doesn't smell good in cold process soap . Fake cucumber smell. It doesn't really hold up well after curing. I purchased bc of the great reviews but not sure what happened to the production of this fragrance. There is no discoloration, ricing or acceleration.

Rating: I really like this FO, it's great blended with Spearmint EO in CP soap. Very refreshing! Ordering another bottle today before I run out!!

Rating: This holds up really well in CP soap. It didn't discolor. It's a very strong scent. Works great in blends.

Rating: This is a very nice fresh cucumber scent! Very nice when mixed with your lime fragrance oil when making soaps. It smells soooo fresh and good! I used a little more lime than the coconut. One of my favorite fresh scented soaps! Will be back for more for sure! ?
Rating: This is a wonderful fresh (& sweet) scent. However, I feel like it smells very similar to the watermelon that I also purchased. The first notes I picked up in both of them are almost identical. My daughter and close friend thought it was watermelon when they smelled it as well. I wish it didn't smell sweet, due to that reason alone. Otherwise, it's a really nice scent.
Rating: This is my second (1st is lime) absolute favorite FO EVER! ND has nailed the scent authenticity with their friuts. Wow love this FO I use it everywhere. Strong and lasting and the price, PERFECT.
I've always been an EO girl, but these FOs are fun to play with in my burners. This along with lime and Violet FO is my signature scent (Pb I call "Freshen") now , using the FO instead of EO, it allows the top mid and base notes to linger together for the life of the scent. Stays the same till the next Application

Rating: I mixed lime fragrant oil and your cucumber fragrant oil into a light whipped butter for summer . The combo is fantastic! The lime scent is wild. I love it. The cucumber is a little lighter and balance things out.
It smells like something that can be eaten!
Rating: Used this in a cp soap for my husband. He liked it fine, but it is a bit sweet for a cucumber. The scent had staying power, didn't accelerate, and didn't have that powdery cloying aroma. It was nice to work with but was looking for something that was more of a fresh/clean than sweet scent.
Rating: I purchased this scent years ago. I recently found the bottle that had a little remaining. The scent is as strong as it was when I first purchased it. The scent description is dead on. Either cucumber is a scent that is done right or wrong. This one is incredible. It is great alone or blended with other scents. Highly recommend this one. Very crisp and cucumber scented.
By:Lynda, Birmingham, Alabama Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 08-Dec-2008
Rating: This is too sweet to be like "real" cucumber scent. However this is a nice scent and works well when blended with others.
By:P., Columbus, Ohio Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Feb-2011
Rating: Strong and sweet! It has lasting power. Nice in the bathroom.

Rating: Quite strong, but absolutely lovely. Clean and fresh, excellent scent for linens or a washroom.
By:Kayla, Calgary, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Very strong scent. A little goes a long way! Smells amazing in soap once it hardens!
By:Nikki, Gunn, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: This cucumber smells great! It kind of smells like a "sweet" cucumber versus one you but at the store. This is a keeper!
By:Purity, Reynoldsburg, Ohio Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Feb-2011
Rating: Getting this I thought it'd be a great additive with some of the other FO's on here - It is. But this would also smell lovely on its own as well, I just haven't gotten around to it yet :p
This is alott stronger than I expected so that you can actually smell the cucumber scent, rather than dull as most cucumber scents can be, you really don't have to add much of this scent for your products to smell great. This scent is both lively, and relaxing at the same time somehow. It'll surprise you, but let's just say, you wont be disappointed.

Rating: You know I didn't like this the first time I bought it. It's scent is not at all what I think when I think cucumbers. It is sweet almost cotton candyish. I would really love for them to make a more green, fresh, and natural-like cucumber scent. BUT, None the less this scent is actually one of my TOP selling fragrances in products. It mixes together wonderfully with spearmint essential oil. I make a lotion and soap bar with it. Customers buy it faster than I can make it! SO for that I have to give it 5 stars!
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: I was a bit disappointed when I first opened this bottle. It smelled super sugary, almost like watermelon candy, or at least a sweet cucumber melon. I tested it out in a recent CP batch and the sugary sweetness has faded into a nice mellow cucumber scent. Overall I'm happy with this product.

Rating: Although this does remind one of the cucumber melon sold in B&BW, it's very light and lovely. I don't usually color my M&P soap, but I can definitely see a pretty green soap in my future...
By:Marie, Bronx, New York Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Jun-2009
Rating: A year or so ago I developed what I think is the best skin lotion on the market. Those who have tried it love what it does, but have not reordered because of its scent. After trying a half-dozen or so fragrances, I finally found a winner! Thank you New Directions! Everyone so far now loves how my lotion smells.

Rating: Good smell in CP soap. Does not accelerate trace or discolor. It smell fresh and green and a little sweet to. A good summer fragrance. I used 2% and 2.5% in my soap but it could have been a bit more, like 3% to hold better. And it stays long in the soap, even after a few months you can still smell it. It didn't morph. Can't wait to try it with melon, to see what it does.
By:Edith, Mirabel, Quebec Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: clean and fresh... love it
By:Anna, Orillia, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: When I first smelled it out of the bottle, i found it too sweet, but when I put the 3% amount in my mp, it seamed more mellow, more of the true cucumber smell.
By:Marilyn, Newmarket, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Okay this is the second time I have purchased this FO. The first time around I was a bit disappointed in it thinking it was a bit too sweet smelling. But since then I have used it in CP and have found it to be a perfect fit! In my CP soap it's crisp, fresh, and smooth. A now favorite of mine! Try it mixed with spearmint essential oil and a mint herb for a refreshing cool smell! It's wonderful! So if you are unsure on whether or not to get this scent, I personally recomend it and think you will like it too! And might I add AWESOME prices!
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: This cucumber has a very melon like smell and reminds me more of a sweet cucumber mellon with almost a small note of cotton candy than cucumber. I admit I was hoping for more of a fresh crisp green smell but honestly this smell is still just as lovely. Not too over powering, plesant and smooth. Over all (although not what I was looking for) I am still pleased with this scent.
By:Heather, Colorado Springs, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 26-Aug-2009
Rating: This cucumber FO manages to be crisp and green without being overly sharp which can be a problem that I have noticed in cucumber scents from other companies. NDA got it right with this one!
Rating: Great cooling smell, very fresh. I have used it in CP soap and it does ok, I can smell a hint of plastic in the soap after it cures for a while, but all my customers love it and has become a favorite around here.
By:Gregory, Nicholson, Pennsylvania Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 02-May-2008
Rating: This is another perfect summery fragrance as it is light, green and slightly sweet. I just made some cucumber hand cream and it is very refreshing. I have been alternating between the Cucumber and the Bahama Berry & Melon fragrance oil, which is also a very nice summer fragrance with more of a fruity note. I love them both!
By:Deborah, Centennial, Colorado Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 23-Jul-2007
Rating: I love the smell of this oil. Refreshing and light. This product is fantastic.
By:Jamie, Lancaster, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Great scent. This is my second purchase of this fragrance, and ordered a big one because it's so popular! Very crisp, and bright, but still very rich. Love love! Very true to it's description, and mixes well in just about anything.
By:Jennifer, Lansing, Michigan Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 04-Jun-2008
Rating: A lovely spa-like scent that's relaxing, bright and crisp

By:Mercedes, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 06-Jul-2008
Rating: A stellar scent! Very fresh, crisp and clean. It has been a sellout at every craft fair we've done!
By:Jayne, Delhi, New York
Date: Loyal Customer Since: 29-Aug-2007
Rating: This is strongly Cucumber-Melon, not Cucumber and its smell is heavenly. However, as it is similar if not sweeter than the hugely popular Cucumber-Melon products out there, I would not recommend it for high-end products as it leaves you thinking of teenagers. It smells really, really good though. Dissipates well, one drop was enough to scent a 1 oz pot of moisturizer.
By:Shanee, Topanga, California

Rating: I agree that this is a sweeter version of cucumber, but it's still very mild and mellow, and I like it a lot.
By:Crystal, Port Moody, British Columbia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Very nice as a unisex scent, this holds up well in CP
By:Karina, Richmond Hill, New York Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 14-Sep-2007
Rating: I was certainly surprised by this scent! When cucumber came to mind, the smell coming from this bottle was not at all what I was picturing! Crisp and clean, it's a favorite among my clients.
Rating: Not at all what I was expecting, this is a very clean and fresh cool summer scent. Not too sweet like the melon-cucumber blends this is just a nice straight green scent. Melon scents blend well but this is perfect on its own as well.
By:Nicole, Windsor, Ontario Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: Wonderful scent for the summer. Seems to be everybody's favorite. It's a light crisp fragrance.
By:Julie, Menominee, Michigan Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 30-Mar-2008
Rating: Fresh, crisp and clean on its own! Can't wait to try blending with melon! Everybody loves this one!
By:Debra, Menominee, Michigan Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 05-Apr-2008
Rating: I've never liked body care products that smell like food and have, therefore, stubbornly avoided making any to sell. But NDA is always challenging my notions of what should smell good and WOW! Are they ever on the money with their Cucumber scent! It's just stunning! Crisp and bright, this FO is pure summer in a bottle!
By:Marith, Berea, West Virginia Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 20-May-2007

By:Julie, Red Deer, Alberta Top ReviewerDate: Loyal Customer Since: 09-Nov-2005
Rating: I bought quite a few other fragrance oils, and this one is my favorite. The fragrance is very inviting. The lily of the valley fragrance oil is pretty nice, too.
