This is a fresh cucumber scent, but it fades really quickly. I usually use it either as a room spray, or (I know this is weird) to spray on my shoes to get rid of the smell after I get home. I like how it's fresh without being overpowering. Sometimes I carry it round in my bag in summer to use as deodorant as well, but I seldom use it as a fragrance alone. It's a weird to smell like a cucumber all day, so perhaps it's good the scent fades quickly.

This is a fake cucumber smell, not at all like real cucmbers (like I expected)

Still if you like that bath and body works type cucumber you will love this, it only lasts an hour on me though.

I am really dissapointed with demeter even though I wanted to love them, the smells are not true.

This smelled too much like cucumber/melon to me. Not enough "cucumber".

I used to wear this (as did my husband), and it smelled EXACTLY like cucumber. I LOVED it! Sadly the last 2 bottle's i've purchased smelled more "floral" and not pure "cucumber" anymore???? I just couldn't figure out why they changed their formula!!!!!
Has anyone else noticed this too?

Badly designed (i.e. cheap) pump-spray tops on all the Demeter PMU sprays.

As for the Cucumber? I really like the green, fresh, crsipness of this scent which is slightly sweet.

I like this one layered with Demeters String Bean, as well.

Garden Fresh!

sigh. this is another one ive wanted to try for some time. it smells pretty much like the other demeter fresh/garden scents. it does distinctly say cucumber, but it smells a whole lot like dandelion, which i have and love. i expected a very crisp, distinctive cucumber scent. nice, but not one to get if you already have many of the same.

Fresh And Clean! Take a cuke from the fridge, cut it open and take a whiff. That's what this fragrance smells like. Very green and cool. Lovely to find a single-note cucumber fragrance that isn't paired with some type of melon! A must try!

This was my first PMU purchase. The accuracy of the cucumber scent is only matched by the "Smell This" fragrance line.
Too much alcohol, fades the aroma away after only a few hours.

This smells like a cheap and nasty version of Crabtree & Evelyn's "Salad Greens" room spray. Whilst undeniably fresh and green, there is also a harsh soapy note in this perfume that makes my nose wrinkle. Although passable as a springtime room spray or linen freshener, I could not wear this on my skin. For something with a bit more "depth" and infinitely more wearability, try Lothantique's take on the same theme. Unfortunately, when it comes to Demeter, I have yet to meet a real cucumber that smells like this (or should that be fortunately??).

This smells exactly like it sounds. It's not artificial or heavy. It smells just like fresh cucumbers. I'm not crazy about the scent of cucumbers which is why I'm only giving this 3 lipsticks. I like my scents to be a bit more floral or powdery. If you are a cucumber fan than you should check this out.

It definitely smells like cucumber, but a bit sweeter than the real thing. And it's this cloying touch of sweetness that came to smell worse on me as the hours wore on. This one has better staying power than most Demeters. It's OK, but there are better cucumber fragrances out there.

This smells exactly like fresh cut cucumber. I give it a 4 for that. Lovely for a pick me up, but really how often would you like to actually smell like cucumber--thank heavens it evaporates and is light enough only to be sniffed by you and not those surrounding you!

This was okay.. Smells really good, but doesn't last long at all. I like The Body Shop's perfume oil in "Cucumber" a lot better than Demeter's version. It cost a little more, but last a lot longer.

Love, love, love the scent. The most perfect cucumber scent i have smelt so far. But waaaaah. It hardly lasts. I keep it in my purse for touch ups. Oh how i am enjoying this product. Easy to use up quite quickly, but i will buy it again, and again.

This is a nice, light fragrance - it just doesn't last long enough though. Smells like a freshly cut cucumber.
