Moves

Does anyone know of a higher quality and longer lasting version of this scent profile? I have a collection of 200+ fragrances both designer and niche, and I still find myself reaching for this one on a regular basis. I just love this stuff. There's a definite nostalgia factor going on for me but just going by the scent alone I think Adidas Moves still holds its own against the latest and greatest big blue scents even in today’s world. I just wish it lasted longer because with the current formulation it's pretty much gone after 2 hours.. I know LV Meteore is like an upgraded and luxury take on Azzaro Chrome (another old favorite of mine), so is there anything out there that's similar for this one? I see this getting compared to Nautica Voyage here but honestly they don't really smell alike, even though they're in the same fresh and clean category. In any case I will always have a bottle of this in my collection, whether it's kept on the fragrance shelf or in the bathroom.

I just got a bottle of this in for nostalgia sake. This was the first fragrance I ever remember smelling, raiding my cousin's dresser to find this and catch a whiff. I was intoxicated! This was also the first fragrance I can remember owning as a young guy in his early teens. After just getting it back in a few days ago, I was transported right back to that time. I don't really love the opening, it sort of reminds me of a Windex cleaner. After that initial blast, it dries down into a synthetic shower gel scent with aquatic undertones and green notes. I definitely get the mint, apple, tomato leaf and lavender in here, but the other florals and sweet fruity notes take a back seat. Either way, despite some of the hate behind this frag for some, I still love it. It's fresh, clean, inviting & nostalgic. And cheap! Best kind of cheapie for the young crowd.

When one recalls his first love in colognes, it's with either fond nostalgia or just outright regret. I'm happy to say that with Moves, the original Adidas men's fragrance, it's not quite the latter. But the price of a 1.5 oz. of Moves--at exclusively Walmart, of all places--is hardly worth it, these days. While the clean, soapy, masculine scent, with strong citrus and lighter tropical floral notes has become somewhat of a nostalgic alternative to Nautica Life, the fact remains that the overall longevity of these "sporty" scents is depressingly short. If you like strong, sexy citrus notes, stick with colognes actually worth the purchase price, like Azarro Chrome, Jean Paul Gaultier Classique or Giorgio Armani's Aqua di Gio. As for Moves, you can give it to the high school basketball team, where it belongs.

Super fresh and clean scent in the vein of Nautica Voyage. Hard to compare to anything directly, but it has a soapy clean vibe, a little green, and a little musky (reasonable quality, inoffensive musk). I think this is shockingly appealing for its price as a dumb reach clean fragrance. I just bought two 75ml bottles at walmart for about 9 bucks a piece. Maybe it's partially the nostalgia factor, because I used to wear this stuff literally 25 years or so ago, but I see myself wearing it in the office this week. It's truly a sweet spot scent for cleanness, being ultra inoffensive, and not being ridiculously played out since it's so old that no one thinks about it. So cheap that if you're in the market for something like that, why not give it a try?

This was in every dudes locker in high school in 1999/2000 including mine. The 1999-2008 formula was so dense and good! The combination of the unique Tomato Leaf with the Green Apple, Oakmoss, Cedar & Musk was a lot like A&F Fierce 3-4 years before Fierce Cologne even came out! Even tho it is watered down to piss now like everything else that was once sacred back in the day, i still always make sure to have a bottle in my collection and wear it or smell the bottle for the nostalgia from time to time. I have a lot of incredible memories i cherish wearing Adidas Moves For Men in my Teens to young Adult!

I have kept a boottle of this since the late 90s...in fact, I do beleive that my girlfriend is going to get me a new bottle for Christmas this year, so I am looking forward to adding the new one to my collection. I will always enjoy this fragrance, no matter how many people attempt to talk trash about it on here. Fresh, clean, cool, and brings with it a great sense of nostalgia. One cannot go wrong with this cologne.

If a man walks by me wearing this, I will always have some not so innocent thoughts because this is like an aphrodisiac for me. I know it's silly because it's just a cheap fragrance from the drugstore, but I just cannot help but be put under its spell. This fragrance is clean and bright with a very cooling effect in the heat. I cannot stress enough how much I love it when a man wears this.

The adventure starts somewhere. I had received this sent back in the day over 10 years ago. When I wore it as a child I thought this is as good as it gets little did I know I would be where I am today. Now when I get a whiff of it it smells of nostalgia and a time period when I had nothing to worry about. This is a great scent to get a elementary aged child. This is a great beginning.

This is one of my favorite scents of all time. It's just fresh! It only lasts 2 hours on me, but hey, to me it's just for the gym. I use to wear this in middle school, and it's surprisingly still one of my favorite scents ever. I love the scent so much that I bought it JUST to use as room freshener.

Adidas Moves is one of the first fragrances I got into when I was in high school. It's still one of the best sport fragrances with a great fresh smell for warm weather with a nice touch of musk and depth. It's still in my top 10 of all time and I love wearing this to the gym. I give this a 9.4/10

Only reason you'd own this today is if you wore this as a child and want it strictly for nostalgia purposes and it doesn't smell bad it smells really good actually but performance is as bad as it was when I was a kid lol but I enjoy those 15 mins of projection and longevity lol

I really enjoy this fragrance. In my opinion it reminds me of Azzaro Chrome, Burberry Touch and Curve Chill. To me the most dominant note is mint. I get around four hours from it and the projection is more intimate. I like to use it on weekend mornings.

Brings back so many great memories! I believe it’s the tomato leaf in this that makes it so nice. It’s been out for a long time but you can’t say that this is bad smelling. Easy pickup for a young fella.

They guy who says that this is a good Azzaro chrome has a broken nose because it smells nothing like it

Love it! Reminds me of my high school days. Wouldn't use now though; maybe just to remember old days.

love this! fresh clean perfect for summer

I remember getting this as a gift and thought it was going to be forgetful but after wearing this a few times I grew to really like this more than certain $50 to $100+ spicy blue fragrances (from discounters). This is a good every day scent that's somewhat unique. The only thing close to "challenging" about this is getting the cap off. Bad jokes aside. The only complaint is that the longevity is just about nonexistent, after two hours, even if you put 10-15 sprays on. However, this doesn't have a high price point like a Roja Dove, Xerjoff or Clive Christian scent will demand so who cares. it's fresh from all the citrus and mint. it's spicy, the pineapple makes sense now that I look at the notes of this. It's certainly in that blue body spray / body wash type scent profile when you first put it on. This was clearly designed for people to wear after the gym, in the classroom, or for a job interview, there's nothing to dislike about it. scent wise at the price this goes for. Why I find this so unique is the use of tomato leaf, this doesn't smell like a pasta dish, no, it gives it depth, this complex greenness that can be a bit spicy. The best thing I would suggest if you're new to fragrances is to go to the grocery store and smell the vine some tomatoes are sold on as silly as it sounds. After wearing this for an hour. Sprayed heavily of course. Due to the jasmine and lily of the valley, which surprises me that there's white florals in this, I get the dry down of something very similar to Issey Miyake - L'Eau D'Issey (EDT), is it the same? Not exactly but someone may spot some similarities as both perfumes have a massive list of "notes". Here's three to try instead. 1) - Coach For Men (2017) - the perfumers were trying to do roughly the same thing. Coach performs better, 5 hours give or take with an average amount of sprays. If you can't get it under $40-50, skip it. 2) - Afnan - Modest Une - This is one of many Dior Sauvage copies on the market. If you've never tried sauvage, imagine if Axe Phoenix body spray actually lasted the entire day. 3) - Armaf - Iconic - this is a copy of Bleu De Chanel. - this one is for people newer to wearing cologne. it's like they tried to make the most likable blue fragrance on the planet. I find iconic extremely boring some days some days but stuff like that gets you the most complements.

So after visiting this years later I still really enjoy this stuff even after experiencing the scents of many niche and higher level designers This scent is exactly as I remember ! It opens up with a sharp but fresh, but also bitter opening that's quite musky as well. The tomato leaf in this is very noticeable in the beginning giving this a slightly off putting note but after about 15 minutes the sharpness and bitterness starts to fade and this starts to become more green,smooth and almost minty. The drydown is pretty much the same as the heart but in the drydown the sharpness completely fades and your left with a fresh, green apple scent that's very sporty. (The drydown is my favorite part of this fragrance) Performance on this for me is slightly above average. It lasts on me 4-6 hours but projects very well for the first 2 hours and projects off the skin about a foot for the duration of the fragrance. Overall rating --- 8 out of 10 ! A really great scent and a classic for the late 90s but still a great scent still to this day

Another Adidas fragrance filled with nostalgia. It's cheap, it's basic, and its performance is terrible, but I'll be damned if Moves doesn't bring back a lot of great (and some not-so-great!) memories. By today's standards, this is an incredibly average fragrance, though I don't find it any more or less synthetic-smelling than most contemporary staples. It's fresh in an aromatic way, with lots of fruity notes but none of them standing out from one another. Tomato leaf seems to be the star player here. Put simply: This is what a high schooler in the early 2000s would wear -- but only if his parents didn't want to shell out for a bottle of Acqua di Gio! It's one of the first fragrances that comes to mind as a "shower gel" type, and I still reach for my mini bottle when I'm just chilling and don't want to wear anything else. I doubt I'm going to restock on it when I run out, though.

Out of nowhere I wanted to time travel again, got a vintage bottle and went back to 2000, 6th grade PE class, post-football game locker room. It probably smells very similar in current bottles too, as the ingredients don't strike me for those which are restricted or banned since then. Knowing what I know now, this smells like Calvin Klein - Crave mixed into Liz Claiborne - Curve, hence A&F - Fierce with a dash of Cool Water. All of which are lavender/Dihydromyrcenol bombs, the star ingredient of the time. Though with Crave connection I need to mention the additional birch leaf ingredient, also the signature top note profile of Calvin Klein - Escape for men. p.s. Jaguar has a scent called Classic Motion, that smells quite like it, and in proper EdT application. This is still a good refreshing scent today, biased with nostalgia of course.
