No smell
Works great and no smell. Previous solutions I have tried have a bad smell and would smell up entire house but this doesn’t

Low scent/odor. Good quality EMA monomer. Very slow setting. Pricey.
The monomer solution comes in an attractive bottle. The bottle, with a reflective metallic sheen, appears to be composed of glass. A very secure cork provides a white topping to an elegant appearance.As mentioned in the product details, this is a 'low odor' monomer. It delivers on this feature. It's much less perceptible than most monomers. However, there is still a low odor; It would still be wise to use this in a well ventilated area.The significant other noted that the best/key aspect of this product is that it uses ethyl methacrylate (EMA), and is 100% free of MMA (methyl methacrylate).One downside, in her assessment, is that it is very slow setting. The product details does note that it is a slow setting monomer, so that issue doesn't negatively affect the rating. Anecdotally, it's noteworthy that it is the slowest of any monomer she's used.For EMA monomer products, this is positioned in the higher end of the price range. In fact, it's rather pricey, especially for 4 ounces.Based on these impressions and considerations, it receives a 4 star rating.

Barely Any Scent
I would recommend this product for anyone who is sensitive to the scent of standard monomer.I was so surprised when I opened the bottle and wasn't immediately overwhelmed by the smell.It is slow setting so patience is required (about 5-10 minutes; run under warm water to remove tacky layer) but I have been able to sculpt beautiful nails with the benefit of no headache.

Good product
It really is a good product and is REALLY super extra mega low odor.. butttttt it is SUPER runny, takes toooooo long to sey an dry and it also leaves a sticky layer. I don't regret the purchase, I guess that if you can overlook those things you'll be satisfied. I don't love it completely but I do like and appreciate the low odor feature.

Very little odor. Remember, use LESS of this than traditional monomer
This is my first time trying odorless, slow cure monomer and I love it. It made it so much easier to work with acrylics. I was even able to work with a cheap set of powders I got that was utterly unworkable with other monomers. This stuff is amazing.First off, it isn't completely odorless. But I doubt you'll find any monomer that truly is. However, the smell of this is no where near as strong as traditional monomer is. It's very faint and unnoticeable after a minute or two.While working with it, the first thing I noticed is that if you try to use it the same way you do with traditional monomer, it won't work. At first it will look like the bead is useable, but after a moment it will become drippy and won't cure properly. After watching a few video tutorials I found that you need to have considerably less monomer on the brush when you go to pick up a bead. If you do it right, at first it will look like it's just a little bit dry (but not too dry). Once you place the bead down on the nail, it will take about 5-10 seconds to look like a workable bead. After that you have quite a bit of time to finish shaping it with your brush.The other thing you'll have to keep in mind with this is that it will have a slightly sticky layer even once it's fully cured. It kind of reminds me of gel polish in that regard. I was able to clean it with alcohol and get right back to work filing and finishing.If you have it in your mind that this is going to work exactly the same way as traditional monomer, you won't like it at all. But if you learn to work with it the way it's meant to be worked with, you will love this stuff.

Not very low odor
I did not like the “low-odor” smell of this monomer. I would have sent back if I could.

My acrylic did not hardened.
It did not smell bad but it did not hardened the acrylic. Disappointed!

Not odorless BUT, wayyyyyy better than traditional monomer 💅
I find this monomer to be great to use! It arrived secure and really well packaged. It’s easy to use to apply my acrylic powder polish. It does not have the traditional monomer fume scent to it but, it’s also not odorless. I am having the hardest time placing/naming the scent. It reminds me of a halloween store for some reason. I can not for the life of me name the scent but it’s definitely something I have smelled with halloween make up and halloween stores. It’s really tolerable especially compared to the fumes from traditional monomer. I love that I’m not sacrificing quality of the monomer for a more tolerable scent. I also like the nice glass bottle this monomer comes in. I would definitely recommend this monomer product because it works just as good as traditional monomer with out having to deal with the powerful scent of monomer. Since the bottle has a metallic color finish to it, I do find it hard to photograph for my review.
