Pure Lightness

I never thought I would like a perfume from adidas that much. For me, adidas is just a sports clothes brand and not a cool one at that. This perfume was perfect for me at first spritz. It is very fresh, light, pleasant, unobtrusive, just perfect freshness with a bit of flowers and some fruityness. I muss confess I can't distinguish apple or melon or lily of the valley out of the "scent burst", but for me it smells all very nice, very harmonic, flattering and is a perfect go-to-scent when I don't know what to wear. (I used to grab "Daisies" or "Beautiful Day" in that case, but both bottles are empty right now ^^) It also fades quite quickly on me, after half an hour I can't smell it anymore anywhere, but I MUCH prefer this to other perfumes that last 2 days on me and sometimes survive showers. I LOVE scents and perfumes, but I hate it when they are too strong and I am stuck with them. I'd rather reapply my scent 6 times a day ^^ it also makes changing the scent easier if for my workday I want a light scent like this one and in the evening I like to change to something heavier or sweeter or just different. It's just a personal preference. Like wearing the same outfit all day or changing twice when I'm home, each to their own ;) So ... very light and friendly and work appropriate scent, also suitable for girls above 10, I'd say, good for after sports, light enough for summer. I just bought another two bottles because with my luck, any scent I really like gets discontinued real fast.

This deceptively inexpensive fragrance is a long-term love for me! The melon and crisp, watery apple lift you up and later, the soft, delicate florals peek through whenever you move or a breeze blows, but it stays light, aquatic, and refreshing. It's definitely my softest, lightest lily of the valley scent. I find the perfume long-lasting; I get whiffs of it all day but I'm very sensitive to scent. This frag has a beautiful, delicate, feminine shimmer effect to it. Perfect for everyday wear, not limited to the gym despite the athletic-wear name. It's nice for brunch or a day date or anytime you just want to smell pretty. It does seem to suggest warm-weather wear but can work year round. It's a bit reminiscent of AA Flora Salvaggia or Jo Malone Wild Bluebell, but I actually like this cheapie better than either of those. I see the resemblance to the DKNY fragrances too.

This is the most delicious, crisp, fresh, fruity feminine smell ever. It’s a shame that it’s discontinued officially and you can only find it online. This is such a good scent adidas should sell it as an EDP and i’d buy it no matter how expensive they price it. Totally signature scent worthy. I want something exactly like this that isn’t discontinued 🥹♥️

Smells like freedom — like the early 2000s when everything felt lighter, easier, and full of possibilities. It’s airy, slightly sweet, with a fresh fruity kick — like a mix of green apple and melon, with a hint of “after rain” freshness. Perfect for everyday wear — light, clean, and effortlessly pretty. An absolute gem for the price.

I'll give this a love! I scored this for $18.88 at Shoppers this afternoon. 😍 Its fresh, its fun! I'm a very active person, sporty if you will and this fits me pretty good for a freshen up! Very satisfied with this and will keep it near the front of my collection. Great blind buy.

Out of the adidas scents, this is my possible fav. It's light, not overpowering, sweet versatile and appropiate for young folks like me. I didin't expect much from adidas, but this is a nice effort from the brand. I love melon scents and this is great.

Clean, calm, and relaxing. This is what DKNY Be Delicious should smell like. This is much smoother than Be Delicious and lacks the screechy shampoo punch of that metallic green apple.

Just a very basic approach to a very classic scent, the kind of thing you can spray on before leaving to run errands or go to school, or work. Very lovely and very safe scent.

Please Adidas make this one into an EDP, this is so fresh and energetic. To me it smells more like cucumber than apple though. The melon also comes through. Amazing scent <3

I bought a small 15ml bottle of this and it's perfect to throw in my gym bag. The perfect scent to put on while working out. It's fresh, light and non offensive.

One of my favorite aquatic scents:smells nothing like Cool Water on me.The name fits it perfectly-if you want to smell fresh and clean this is perfect:)

I'm using it for a few years and i definitely love it! It's fresh, light and reminds me of the ocean/sea scents. :)

Pooor longevity! nice melony smell fresh, specially after a workout. Longevity is my only complaint.

Imagine a bouquet of candied apples and lotus blossoms. I think this scent is one of the most underrated ones, just because it is Adidas? A perfectly well balanced perfume in my opinion, top notes are candy sweet I agree, but wait a while for those oriental flowers to take shape, I smell lotus, orchid, frangipani, to name a few, held together by calone-nic notes. Younger and sweeter than The Body Shop's Oceanus by a hundred times, as Oceanus has this musky old lady base. Sillage is incredible on me, ( 4 spritzes in the morning is all it takes to keep a small air-conditioned music studio fresh for at least 6 hours and heck no, i wasn't using it as an air freshener, I actually used it on ME, that's how scarily good the sillage is). Contrary to what other reviewers mentioned, i think the only similarity between Cool Water and this are the calones, as this very much lack that irritating talcum-sharpness of Cool Water. It's also dirt cheap to boot. An excellent fruit-floral pick-me-up that wouldn't make you sneeze.

I tried this hoping for melon and aquatic. The top notes deliver that well, but it dries down to a standard laundry soap scent very quickly, which I'm not into. But I still use this fragrance for the weirdest reason! I found that spraying it on clothing that smells dirty (e.g. after the gym, or when you arrive at work after walking in the humid heat) completely neutralises the smell of body odor and sweat! Now apparently this is not intentional- there's no "neutralising agent" in Adidas fragrances like there might be in deodorants, so i think it's just a coincidence that the laundry floral smell perfectly counters the smell of dirty clothing. So i use this as needed at work and for the gym, + I can still wear my chosen perfume over the top without any clash (no, I don't smell like laundry for the rest of the day!). A very unexpected essential to my perfume wardrobe! And in fact, it's less of a perfume to me and more of a hygiene essential on some days!

To me this was a real find among the budget friendly sport fragrances. And yes, I'm one of those who wants to wear a fragrance even while doing sports. However, I do find that this is something that can be worn outside the gym as well. A very fresh, fruity, nice and easy everyday scent. And this is so much more classier and more well balanced than what you would expect for the price tag. To me this is like an enhanced version of Cool Water or Aqua di Gioia. Not just aquatic, ozonic and watery, but with clear sweet fresh fruity notes included in it.

Very pleasant. Excellent for summer, especially when it's super hot. I usually wear sweet perfumes but now it's over 40 degrees Celsius and I (and the people around me) just can't stand heavy fragrances. I was looking for something light, fresh and cheap. And I found it! It smells like water/ swimming pool/ sea. Perfect for hot summers! It projects at about an arm's length and lasts about 4-5 hours now when it's 42 degrees so I guess that if it's colder it will last longer. Oh, and it's so cheap!

I bought this after I'd been told that it's similar to Clean and Cool Water, but I have to say, I really don't see it. Very strong and floral, but pleasant after it fades a little. I can see this fragrance being quite offensive if you put on too much. EDIT: I gave this another go, and definitely smell Cool Water now. I don't know why I thought it was so strongly floral at first - now I smell melon and fresh water. I don't think it's strong at all anymore. The nose sure is weird, isn't it?

I was surprised with this fragrance! I wasn't expecting much because it's Adidas, but when I sprayed this, I was greeted with the crisp smell of melon and lilies. I was instantly hooked! What surprised me more was its longevity. It lasted all day long and I caught whiffs of it on my used shirt the next day. Pure Lightness is an affordable everyday fragrance.

What stands out to me the most is the lily-of-the-valley. I wouldn't say it's a floral scent, though. It's more on the aquatic/fresh side, perfect if you're feeling full of energy and lighthearted. Not one of my favorites, it's the kind of perfume you'd wear if you went jogging, to give you energy. (Assuming people wear perfume when working out. :P )
