Sporty Scents

s

Just because the gym is the place to sweat it out doesn't mean that you can't look good doing it. There are plenty of workout-friendly products that will make sure that you look, feel and smell your best when you're hitting that treadmill. Just one look at the Nickel Eau Maximum (above) (HK$330/75ml) bottle and it's obvious that the fragrance is perfect for the gym. The metallic-blue bottle is designed to look like a sports water-bottle, and the 'treatment fragrance' itself should be applied either before or after physical activity. The fragrance is intended to bring about a feeling of freshness, energy and sensuality on the skin and does so with its combination of extracts, which include grapefruit, spearmint, sage, rosemary, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bvlgari Aqva Pour Homme Marine (HK$665/100ml) is a crystal-clear fragrance that will wake you up during your next workout session. Top notes of grapefruit and neroli bring about a crisp sense of freshness, while the posidonia serves as a clear, watery heart note and rosemary flowers are included in the mix for aromatic fragrance. The bottle is in keeping with the aqua theme, coloured sea-green and designed to resemble smooth pebbles and rocks, with its spherical shape. Make sure your lips still look ravishing even after all those sips of water with a lip colour that stays on. Clinique Long Last Glosswear SPF 15 (right) (HK$120) lasts up to eight hours, keeping the lips moisturised and looking pretty. In the case of outdoor sports, the gloss also provides protection against the sun's UV rays with its SPF 15 formula. Excessive sweating can be a major source of embarrassment at the gym, and while you know not to wear grey T-shirts to the gym for the sake of avoiding unattractive pit stains, there's still the smell factor to deal with. Christian Dior J'adore Perfumed Deodorant Vaporisateur Spray (top) (HK$260) will make sure you smell lovely even after the most strenuous of workouts.
