  • Luxurious, hydrating body formulas
  • Sophisticated, adult-leaning fragrances

  • Overpowering fragrance intensity for some
  • Short-lived scent longevity
  • Occasionally greasy hand cream finish

Cyklar wins praise in reviews for luxe, hydrating body care that leaves skin soft—standouts include the in‑shower body oil balm, lactic acid body polish, nutrient‑rich creams, and several sophisticated scents like Sacred Santal, Vanilla Verve, and Naked Neroli—yet criticisms surface around scent strength and longevity, occasional greasy feel, and mixed deodorant performance. Reviews also note elegant packaging and an effective fragrance‑free lotion, but report issues like overpowering fragrance for some, finicky perfume oil rollerballs, and inconsistent return experiences.

  • Cyklar is another brand from an actress and content creator so honestly, I was not expecting much. However, I was quite impressed. I really enjoyed the in-shower body oil balm. I have used Hanni in the past, and I found it harder to scoop out of the packaging whereas Cyklar's squeezes out easily. The only thing I didn't care for is it didn't seem much product in its continer.

  • The Fragrance-Free Nutrient-Rich Body Cream is more straightforward. It’s thick, hydrating, and does exactly what you need, especially if you’re avoiding scent to layer on your other fragrances. Nothing flashy, but reliable and easy to use every day.

  • The Lactic Acid Foaming Body Polish is a standout for me. It actually feels like it’s doing something—gently exfoliating while still working as a cleanser. The texture is satisfying, and it leaves my skin noticeably smoother without feeling stripped. One of the few body exfoliants I’d keep in regular rotation.

  • I had to try out Cyklar after seeing all the hype and it’s been a very good experience so far. It’s lightweight, fast-absorbing, and the Naked Neroli scent smells very good, like a fresh and citrusy scent. It doesn’t feel super sticky or leave my skin feeling greasy. I recommend gettting it on sale or minis to try out!

  • I received this as a Christmas present from my in law who had just started using cyklar products she knew I would love this scent and she was right. I still have over half of this body oil because it comes in such a big bottle and has such a good price point. so it is an oil soluble, vitamin C, multi oil plunge with squealing body oil and it just says to massage a generous amount all over body and that’s what I do and it’s fantastic. The scent stays forever. It doesn’t get on my clothes it dries into the body really quickly. If you are debating it pull the trigger this is it.

  • Vanilla Verve is a beautiful everyday vanilla fragrance. It opens sweet without being overpowering, then settles into a warm, creamy scent that lasts for hours. It layers well with other perfumes but is just as lovely on its own. Cozy, elegant, and a great value!

  • The Vanilla Verve scent is not the typical vanilla scent I gravitate towards -- I lean towards the brazillian beach bum lotion from sol de janero (and years ago the bath and body works vanilla body spray) -- this is a different scent. Not as sweet I would say.

  • The lotion itself is super moisturizing and does not leave you feeling greasy. I would prefer a pump vs the twist off cap just for ease of application. But the amount of lotion / size of the bottle is a great value.

  • Okay - I may have splurged on this purchase, but I went with the Neroli Vault set that comes with the following: Sensorial Body Wash, Nutrient-Rich Body Cream, Mandelic Acid Brightening Deodorant Gel, Urea Hand Cream, Perfume Oil. Now to be honest- I have not yet tried all the products as I am finishing a few more. I was overwhelmed by the scent selection, but I do really like the Neroli - it has a bit more of a floral note to it than i was expecting - but its gentle and subtle. I've only used the deodorant a few times - but the packaging looks great, it smells lovely! Will it help with brightening - only time will tell with consistent use! The hand creammm - i love the packaging!!! and finally a lotion packaging that isn't going to bust open. It leaves my hands nice and smooth for hours - this might be a repurchase! Its thick and goes on smoothly - the smell is not over powering which we also love.

  • This is my new favorite product. I am not a huge fan of lotion because I hate feeling slimy after, but I know my skin needs hydration. This essence is the key to making my skin hydrated and silky without feeling sticky. It reminds me of the Rhode Glazing milk but for your body. I absolutely love it!

  • I have been wanting to try Cyklar for a while and I’m so glad I finally did! I am really impressed with all of their products and love the scents as well. The body wash and lotion are really incredible and the scent lasts all day.

  • I finally tried Cyklar (call it TikTok influenced) and went all in on the Vanilla Verve scent. I picked up the urea hand cream, the in shower body oil balm, and the perfume oil. First impression of the brand overall, it feels thoughtful and very scent driven. The packaging is fine, but for the price I expected it to look a little more luxe. That said, the scent absolutely delivers. Vanilla Verve is not a sugary cupcake vanilla. It’s creamy, warm, slightly spicy, and anchored by something deeper and musky. You can tell there’s amber and musk grounding it. It smells like adult vanilla. Cozy but elevated. I’ve been stopped twice now and asked what I’m wearing, lol. Layering all three products really helps the scent last, and I love that they’re designed to work together like that. The hand cream feels rich and hydrating and the scent lingers nicely. It’s sliiiightly more greasy than I personally prefer since I tend to like a more dry down finish, but it definitely softens and nourishes. The packaging on this one actually feels a bit more elevated, maybe because of the cap. The in shower body oil balm might be my favorite. It’s thick, almost like a Vaseline texture, but it melts beautifully into warm skin after you turn off the water. I’ve also used it on dry skin and it still melts in nicely. It leaves my skin soft and lightly fragranced without feeling sticky. I plan to buy this as gifts for friends! The perfume oil smells exactly like the rest of the line and lasts for hours on me, which I appreciate. It feels cozy and intimate. My only real complaint is the roller ball. Mine gets stuck constantly, so I have to use my fingers to get it moving, which means perfume oil on my hands. Not ideal. Overall, I really like Cyklar. The scent is addictive, layering works, and the body oil balm especially is a standout. It definitely makes me curious to try more from the brand.

  • Using Cyklar feels luxurious and mature. The body washes feel so slippery and hydrating. Even after rinsing my skin feels hydrated so I know the body washes are actually performing. The body cream performs similarly. Feels so luxe and moisturizes my skin really well. I do wish the scents lasted longer. The body washes don’t leave any lingering scent on me once I’m dried off after the shower and the body lotion scents disappear quite quickly. The Sacred Santal scent lingers on my clothes though. The scents are very well-balanced and don’t feel juvenile at all. This is adult luxury. Even the packaging with the gold lettering and subdued colors screams elegance. I love having this displayed. Sacred Santal is warm, musky, clean skin. Bergamot Bond is a very green, herbaceous scent. It’s really pleasant and spa-like. Naked Neroli is warm and a bit citrusy. Has a bit of floral as well. Vanilla Verve has the least scent power to me. Almost to the point of I’m wondering if I smell anything. I smell very faint vanilla, not too sweet, but that’s it. I wish I got the spicy vanilla I hear other people talking about! I like the perfume roller balls for travel or to throw in my bag for on the go. The scents don’t project at all, just stay right on the skin, so they’re nice for peace of mind or being in close quarters with people but not much else. I love the formulations and the scents overall I just wish they performed better.

  • Ok. Sad news incoming. This product is everything I hate about social media and influencer marketing. For all the hype I’ve seen online I would’ve thought this was some amazing product when in reality it’s just plain bad. The scent is GROSS and I like santal. Not this one! Completely nauseating. Save your money.

  • I purchased two perfume oils from cyklar, and thought they were really worth the price. The scents were really pleasant, and since they were kind of inexpensive, I felt compelled to try a few and ones that I wouldn’t necessarily gravitate towards. I also like how the oils were great to layer under other perfumes. I think my only gripe would be the roller ball makes it so I have to roll it a few times before any product comes out- but I imagine this is good for travel/ preventing leaks. The packaging is incredibly sleek, and really resembles something that would be a lot more expensive. I’d try the other products from this brand, however I’m tempted to purchase other perfume oils given how much I like them.

  • I really did not enjoy this scent. However, I gifted it to my friends and they loved the scent, the quality of the product, and that it was a gift! I am still curious to try out other products based on what I've heard from other people.

  • I really wanted to love this deodorant because I genuinely like Cyklar’s scents and their skincare-forward approach. The Bergamot Bond scent is fresh and subtle without being overpowering, and the gel formula feels lightweight, smooth, and absorbs quickly without leaving residue. It definitely feels like a more elevated, skin-friendly product. That said, it just doesn’t work as a deodorant. Even with consistent application, I didn’t get reliable odor protection throughout the day. I found myself needing to reapply often, and even then it wasn’t effective. Overall, I love the scent and appreciate the ingredients and formula, but the lack of performance makes it hard to recommend.

  • Full disclosure: I occasionally receive free products from Cyklar, and it’s how I discovered the brand. But I have also made my own purchases from them. I’ve tried most products, with the exception of the perfumes. Everything has been extremely high quality and the fragrances are incredible. Vanilla Verve is as good as everyone says. I recently received the self-tanning lotion, and it’s lived up to my high expectations of the brand. It’s a really thin formula that spreads easily for no streaking. It’s not completely without odor (IMO no tanning product smells 100% great) but it’s not bad either.

  • This was my favorite scent out of everything I tried. I'm going to get more Naked Neroli products in the future. Deodarant seems effective - I am not sensitive to natural deodorants but this did not cause me any issues.

  • Still TBD on its effect but it seems like an innovative product. Sometimes it's easier to spray than rub on more product when it's full-body.
