air up

air up is a German drinking-products brand centered on reusable water bottles used with scented pods. When a user drinks plain water, the pod releases an aroma during inhalation, creating a perceived flavor experience without adding syrup, juice, or other flavoring directly to the water. Its product range is primarily built around bottles, replacement scent pods, and related accessories. The brand positions this combination of reusable packaging, hydration habits, and olfactory perception as an alternative experience for consumers who want to reduce sugary drinks or disposable beverage packaging.

air up emerged in Germany around 2018 with a drinking-product concept built around olfactory perception. Its system places a scented pod near the bottle mouth, allowing aroma to be released while the user drinks and creating a flavor association during the drinking experience. Unlike conventional flavored beverages, the concept does not primarily rely on adding sugar, juice, or another liquid ingredient to the water. The brand subsequently developed a product system consisting of bottles, replacement pods, and accessories, linking reusable containers with everyday hydration. The available material is insufficient to provide a complete, well-sourced account of its founding team, financing, international expansion, or business development by period.

• air up bottle

  The air up bottle is the brand’s core reusable drinking container. During drinking, aroma from a pod near the mouthpiece is released with inhalation, creating a flavor association while the user drinks plain water. The bottle serves as the main platform for the brand’s olfactory drinking system.

• air up scent pods

  Scent pods are replaceable consumables used with the bottle system to release different aromas and change the flavor association during drinking. They are a key part of the brand’s repeat-use and replenishment model.
