Cyklar reviews and discussion

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.

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!

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 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.

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.

Really nice body lotion, unfragranced. Goes on smooth and absorbs very well, I clearly feel moisturized even I the dead of winter - but not too heavy for summer. The lack of fragrance is a welcome differentiator - it really has no smell at all.

Love love love this for summer! I have been on a sun protection journey, and this is the perfect combo for still looking sun-kissed without the damage. I love that it’s easy to apply, and the sparkly oil is great for that extra glow

Great moisturizing scrub. I prefer to use before/after shaving for an extra exfoliation without the stripping. Feels and smells very luxurious. This has replaced the naturism scrub permanently for me.

BEST POLISH EVER!!! I will actually never live without this. I have had a rash on my chest for 8+ years that doctors could not get rid of (I tried steroid creams, antibiotics, antifungals, you name it, and literally nothing worked). This polish IMMEDIATELY removed the rash and made my skin insanely soft. I haven’t tried anything this effective before and I will honestly never live without

Great cup for toning and lympathic drainage. Bought in combo with the body oils to prep for my wedding. Easy to use and I definitely feel better and look lifted after every use. I will keep this in my rotation

Smells amazing (think Y2K sweetness but with a hint of musk - I get a million compliments when I wear this), dries nongreasy (if you put on wet skin), and a little goes a long way so the bottle last forever

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.

I’ve really gotten into hand cream as I hit my 40s. Feels like my hands are always dry. I got two hand creams and wow they are gorgeous. The packaging is very bougie! The fragrances are lovely however I will say they are VERY strong. So if you don’t like the smell of your hand cream lingering I’m not sure this would be for you. I got the vanilla which I will put on before bed as it’s such a comforting smell. And I also got Neroli which is quite energizing so I’ll keep that one in my bag.

I tried the Cyklar Bergamot Bond Essentials Set and have been really impressed so far. The overall quality feels high, especially when it comes to the packaging — everything looks and feels thoughtfully designed, sturdy, and a bit luxe in a way that stands out on the counter. The scent is very neutral and clean, which I really like. It doesn’t lean too masculine or feminine and doesn’t feel overly synthetic or heavy, so it works well for everyday use and won’t clash with other fragrances. Formula-wise, it reminds me a lot of brands like Saltair — the textures and performance feel similar in terms of how they cleanse and moisturize. Where Cyklar really differentiates itself, at least with this set, is in the presentation. The packaging reads much more elevated and premium, which makes the whole experience feel more special. If you’re into clean, subtle scents and care about products that look as good as they perform, the Bergamot Bond set is a great pick.

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.
