Adidas Sport Sensation Ice Dive Eau de Toilette After Shave for Men, 100ml

Product Information

I remember that Ice Dive used to smell exactly like Bleu de Chanel to me, but now it just smells very aquatic in a synthetic way and even somewhat metallic. I don't like it anymore. It starts off with a spicy (Anise) bombardment of sweet (Mandarin Orange, Yuzu) and sour/bitter citrus (Grapefruit, Bergamot). The Grapefruit and Kiwi give it a sweet and tangy opener. Mint hangs on through the scent's evolution, keeping it clean. Lavender wraps everything up with that classic soapy smell. Immediately afterwards you get a potent green and/or earthy (Patchouli) and floral (Geranium) vibe. Then even more immediately afterwards you get a flagrant body spray (musk) and salt (the ambergris) with pepper. So, a balance of sweet, sour, salty, spicy notes with freshness. The main accords my nose gets is: fresh spicy, aromatic, and citrus. The scent itself gets a 7/10. A very forgettable fragrance, I don't even know how or why I own it... there are so many better alternatives; it only lasts for about 2 hours and it has weak silage, none the less after a workout, if you don't have a shower nearby, it can come in handy. Get it for that 15yr old kid as a present they won't complain, they might even like it. Adidas Ice Dive was one of the first colognes I ever used. In the prior early 2000 formulations under COTY, I actually used all the Adidas body washes, body sprays and colognes and Ice Dive was by far my favorite of the lot. It had a distinctive sea salt note that was very pleasant and set it apart from other products at the time. Then the entire line seemed to disappear.

Silage - Again poor. Moderate only when you apply many many sprays... but then it lasts for a short time. This is nice smelling frag, very fresh and very well blended. Yet it is synthetic and yes it is not sophisticated nor it is bold either. The issue I have is that it has some of the worst performance I've experienced. The sillage is a little beyond a skin scent after minutes of application. And the longevity is underwhelming to the point that after 30 minutes to a hour it kind of disqualifies itself from having longevity due to how weak the scent is at that point. The concentration of this seems to be that of a Cologne. Unless you love to smell it, I couldn't recommend this.The introduction for that fragrance is a bit confusing but after a while when it dries I smell lemon and ginger, PS. If you are looking for some sporty fragrances I would recommend Whisky Sport, or some of NIke (De ruy perfumes) colognes, they offer sporty and longer lasting fragrances. My good friend David wears this as his day to day frag of choice. I must admit for such a budget fragrance it smells damn good in the air. I'd go as far as to say i prefer it over his more expensive choices like db instinct sport. I did, and damn well near smashed all my front teeth out and broke my nose off of the pond at my local park last winter.

People are very critical of this under 10 dollar bottle😂 I don't know what people were expecting it to be but it sounds like you had really high hopes for this ultimate cheapie. It is a cheap and nice smelling Frag. Yet I am not sure why, but this is extremely watered down. I have to agree that it lasts for about 1 hour and then vanishes instantly. Adidas Ice Dive by Adidas is a Aromatic Spicy fragrance for men. Adidas Ice Dive was launched in 2001. The nose behind this fragrance is Philippe Bousseton. Top notes are Mint, Grapefruit, Lavender, Bergamot, Yuzu, Kiwi, Mandarin Orange and Anise; middle notes are Geranium, Sandalwood and Patchouli; base notes are Pepper, Ambergris, Musk, Vanilla and Tonka Bean. Scent - Its actually pretty nice. It's fresh and a little minty. It doesn't smell too synthetic and could potentially fool someone into thinking it's more expensive than it is, if the longevity and scent weren't so terrible that is.It could work as something to have in a gym bag, but please remember that it does not last at all, meaning that it will not interfere with your evening smell later on.
