Identity and Release History

When in 2015 Adidas introduced the 2015 fragrance Born Original for Him, it was a bold step in the world of perfumery for active and confident men.

This perfume, known in Russia as "Adidas Born Original", is part of the Adidas Originals collection, which draws inspiration from street culture and the brand's sports heritage.

If we recall that Adidas started with sneakers and equipment, then Born Original for Him perfectly captures the spirit of originality and freedom inherent to this legend.

As an eau de toilette, this fragrance offers freshness and lightness, making it an excellent choice for daily use.

It is positioned as a male fragrance, but its versatility may also appeal to those who appreciate clean, subtle notes.

Positioning and Wearability

Born Original for Him is designed for those seeking a fragrance that emphasizes individuality without excessive flamboyance.

Its low trail makes it ideal for the office, meetings with friends, or sports activities – it won't overwhelm others but will leave a subtle, memorable trace.

Regarding dosage, there is no specific data, but for eau de toilette, 2-3 sprays on the skin of the neck and wrists are usually recommended to allow the fragrance to unfold gradually and naturally.

This perfume belongs to the fougère and woody families, which highlights its balanced character: the freshness of herbs and spices combines with a warm, cozy base.

If you liked Born Original for Him, you might want to check out similar fragrances, such as Antonio Banderas The Icon, Adidas Get Ready! For Him or Avon Homem Up, which also offer affordable and stylish options for men.

Authors and Influence

Although information about the perfumers for Born Original for Him is not specified, this fragrance reflects the DNA of the Adidas brand – it combines sports energy and urban chic, making perfumery accessible and modern.

The emergence of such releases strengthens Adidas' position not only as a leader in sports but also as a player in the world of fragrances, attracting a young, dynamic audience.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Born Original for Him begins with a refreshing accord of lavender, rhubarb, and violet leaf, which create a light, herbaceous openness.

In the heart of the fragrance, spicy and citrus notes unfold: black pepper adds sharpness, orange brings juicy sweetness, and sage adds aromatic depth.

The base completes the composition with warm and cozy accords: cashmeran adds a soft musky trail, sandalwood brings creamy woodiness, and white cedar reinforces it with a lasting, clean base.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Medium (2 to 5 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

This scent surprises with its spicy-citrus composition. Rhubarb plays a sweet-sour note here, and sandalwood and citruses create a harmonious sound. Overall, it smells very dignified, as if it belongs to a more elite segment than just mass-market
4/5

This scent, like all from Adidas, seems too intrusive. The freshness it promises actually presses on your brain. Sporty direction? Rather, it's just an attempt to attract attention. I don't understand why it has such a low rating, but perhaps people are just tired of this banality. Bright orange and spices? Rather, it's a sharp blow to the nose that you want to forget as soon as possible
4/5

The fragrance is clearly powdery, with woody spices and a sweetness that is quite appropriate. If Born Today is more suitable for daytime, then this one is definitely for evening. Overall, both fragrances are not bad

Hey! I want to share my opinion on adidas born eau de toilette. Sweet fragrances are my weakness, but when I came for new perfumes, I realized that the scents had changed, and not for the better. I remembered an adidas ad and decided to just go sniff, although I wasn't sure I'd like anything. But, damn, the smell turned out to be simply gorgeous! Sweet, but not too much, light and yet long-lasting! I was thrilled! And the coolest thing is - no alcohol hits your nose from the first notes! The fragrance is really pleasant! It stays on clothes until you throw them in the wash 😤
5/5

How pleasant it is when a fragrance is truly balanced! No unnecessary details, everything in its place. There's freshness, a bit of sharpness, and even coniferous with creamy accents. This perfume is simply captivating, it has its own individuality!
5/5

I bought this perfume for my boyfriend and I'm absolutely thrilled! The scent is truly bright and fresh, filling you with energy. Citrus notes combine perfectly with a light spiciness. It unfolds gradually, which adds to the interest. Its sillage is moderate, but it lasts surprisingly long - even by evening, I can still smell it on my guy
4/5
4
The fragrance is truly woody-fougère and very energetic! You can clearly feel notes of rhubarb, lavender, and sweet orange in it. It has a medium sillage, but the longevity is pleasing. The consumption is also decent; you won't have to pour out a whole bottle, just 1-2 "sprays" are enough
4/5
4
This Adidas fragrance really stands out from the usual offerings. It's not just a collection of notes, but a true symphony that plays out. Rhubarb, lavender, and orange - these are the accents that immediately hit you. And in the sillage, sandalwood comes through especially brightly, creating an interesting contrast. This perfume is perfect for spring and summer, and also for early autumn - it fills you with energy and positivity. However, for winter, it might seem too light if you prefer richer and warmer scents. But if you like fresh and unusual compositions, then this option is definitely worth trying
5/5

this is our third bottle of this fragrance. the atomizer and the bottle itself are really unusual, they work perfectly, the dosage is excellent, nothing leaks. first we took a small volume, then 75 ml, and again 75 ml. consumption is average, longevity is also good. but the scent itself is simply gorgeous. it's fresh, invigorating, with cool woody and citrus notes. orange and lavender sound very bright. on my husband, it unfolds simply magnificently. definitely recommend buying it
4/5

People's tastes really do vary, and I've always thought that gifting perfume isn't the best choice. But I sometimes make an exception for my brother. The last time, I gave him Adidas Born Original for Him. This fragrance isn't clichéd or boring. It's fresh, youthful, with woody and herbal notes, plus a light sweetness that adds a zestful touch. My brother liked it, and I know he wears it. Moreover, it looks quite stylish, and it's not something to be ashamed of displaying on a shelf. I gave it in the summer, and it smelled absolutely magnificent then. I'm not sure if he'll wear it in fall and winter, but I think it would still be suitable, although it might unfold a bit differently.
