About This Perfume
Think cool melon and pearly florals, clean aquatic air: that is Adidas Pure Lightness. It opens with melon, apple and aquatic notes, moves into lily of the valley, magnolia and jasmine and settles on musk, violet root and apricot. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days and the office. Released in 2008.
Wearers report that it wears for a few hours, and stays close to the skin. Plan to reapply on a long day.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and aquatic for casual days.
- Sample first if: fresh is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you want one spray to last all day.
Around $18.
