Lay out the slices of white bread on a clean surface and trim the crusts if not already removed.
Spread a thin, even layer of the herbed cream cheese mixture on one side of each bread slice.
Place a few thin slices of cucumber evenly over the cream cheese on four of the bread slices.
Lay equal portions of smoked salmon on top of the cucumber slices, ensuring coverage across the bread slice.
Top the smoked salmon with the remaining cream cheese-coated bread slices, cream cheese side down, to form sandwiches.
Using a sharp knife, gently cut each sandwich into four small triangles or squares for easy serving.
Transfer the sandwiches to a serving platter and garnish with a small sprig of dill if desired. Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
