Like Freshly Showered!
My daughter has inherited my passion for fragrances and saved her pocket money to buy me a perfume for my birthday. For this, she even took the bus alone for the first time to get to the nearest drugstore. In the end, my daughter chose "Moves | Adidas."

And what can I say?
The scent is now playing in my league of existing fresh fragrances. Moves doesn't quite reach "Imagination | Louis Vuitton," but it almost gives my second freshy, "Sedley | Parfums de Marly," a run for its money.

Moves offers a lot of freshness! Mint, mandarin, and pineapple. Then there's a hint of tomato leaf that transitions into the final base note of lily of the valley. There's also sandalwood and a lot of moss. A lot of green moss. This wonderful freshy almost becomes a "Green Irish Tweed | Creed."

Moves accompanies you all morning and gives you the feeling of just stepping out of the shower. Aquatic notes follow me with every step and dance around my nose until lunchtime. For the price, it's a fantastic result.

Thanks to my daughter for this wonderful scent and her thoughtfulness!
So now Moves is in the same league as my other freshies like Imagination or Sedley and also "Green Irish Tweed | Creed."
Not always does the price determine the value of a perfume, but the story behind a scent.

The sporty price/performance winner
Forget Nautica Voyage (smells similar), forget Jaguar Pace, Davidoff Cool Water and its flankers, and Azzaro Chrome. This is the price/performance winner in the shower gel fragrance category! For €4.95 you get 30ml at the drugstore. Now that's a deal.

Moves is of course not a complex fragrance, not a compliment getter, not a "high-quality" scent in that sense. But it smells good, fresh, shower gel-like. Perfect for sports or after showering. You can even risk keeping a 30ml bottle in the car or in your bag. Apart from the pepper and mint, you can't really pick out anything from the naturally synthetic fresh jumble, except for various aquatic chemical notes like Calone, but who cares?! I somehow also perceive cucumber, even though it's not listed. This reminds me a lot of Nautica Voyage, which is also a very affordable and good fresh scent.

You can say what you want, the fragrance works. It is nothing more than what it is supposed to be: a very cheap shower gel scent with solid longevity (about 4 hours) and decent sillage, at least on warm days or during sports. Into the gym bag with it!

I was 14 years old...
...when I first came into contact with the world of perfume. After that, it was quiet for many, many years. Unfortunately. It wasn't until another 14 years later that I rediscovered this passion.
Adidas Moves was the first one I sprayed on myself at 14 years old. And I enjoyed it. At that age, sillage didn't matter, longevity didn't matter. Projection? Pff, I'm wearing a perfume, look at me!
Today, I look back on that time with a smile. Even then, I dressed more and more casually, did a lot of sports, and hung out with friends whom I no longer have and don't miss. And that's exactly what this scent embodies for me.
Moves is a sporty, short-lived, and fresh companion that briefly flashes and completely disappears after two hours. No compliments, it’s just there and pleasant. It’s inexpensive. Like a friend at 14, whom you don’t miss many years later.
It was nice with you, but you mean nothing to me anymore. I have to move on ;)

I believe this fragrance, while not anything special, fits its purpose perfectly. It's nice, smooth and easy to wear leisurely or to the gym

A bit of everything, but all a bit artificial. Up front is an artificial fruit-mint mix, then artificial freshness. Too artificial for me.

A fresher late-90s flashback scent for almost nothing. Similar to Curve, very much like Clear Day. Great to see something like this still exists.

Fresh, citrusy, and aquatic. Perfect for sports. Longevity and sillage are rather mediocre.

Simple fresh scent with low sillage. Definitely suitable for everyday wear, especially since it's very affordable!

Fresh, aquatic, generic, and a bit shower-gel-like.
It was one of my first fragrances back then.
You can, but you don't have to. It's okay for the price...

Fresh, aquatic. Not overpowering. Low longevity. A pity for this scent.

Wore it back when I was 14. The 16-year-olds came over and gave compliments. Spicy fresh scent, but more for younger people.

Oh sure... For the money, it's okay. Fine for after sports for the pub afterwards. Freshly showered, lasts for 1-2 hours.

Inexpensive scent after sports that doesn't bother anyone.
