Not quite my thing.

The perfume smells fresh and green. I particularly pick up on the mint, so if you like that, it could be something for you. As the name suggests, I enjoyed wearing it for sports, but not much beyond that. At the current price, I would rather opt for alternatives, as I believe there are better fresh scents for everyday wear and summer.

A good question…
I initially find the "Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme" really well done: a refreshing, energizing scent without being overpowering, showing confident understatement. The complex fragrance carries through the top and heart notes, but unfortunately, the base note fades quickly for me, creating a bit of confusion, even "musty," as one co-reviewer put it.
I once sprayed the Eau Extreme on the left and Versace Eros (blue) on the right wrists for comparison: both were fresh in the top notes, with Eros having a noticeably sweeter, more prominent component. However, during the heart notes, both fragrances started to resemble each other, with the initially fresher Eau Sport leaning towards Eros (tonka bean?). They really seemed quite similar. In the base notes, the Eau Sport faded as mentioned, while Eros remained faithful for a long time.
For me, Eros would be a slightly "poppier" alternative.
