Cool Water by Davidoff
The general conception of Cool Water is true: it's a classic fragrance. It is one of the typical blue scents and there's a time and a place for it. The fresh and citrusy opening gives way to a very refreshing experience, and the drydown is a musky tobacco with a woody backbone.

Echo Woman by Davidoff
The musk and vodka completely overtake the flowers in Echo Woman, but it remains a floral bomb tha blasts in your face.

Run Wild by Davidoff
Run Wild is a floral perfume that is mostly jasmine, the pistachio adds a fresh sweetness similar to Italian pistachio sorbet, and it just fits so beautifully with the jasmine.

Cool Water Wave by Davidoff
Cool Water is a lovely, well-balanced fragrance with a hint of the original DNA.
It is a straightforward and well-balanced composition that is super aquatic, with citrus notes enhancing its freshness, and green and woody notes providing substance in the heart. It pays homage to the original Cool Water while revamping it with a more modern twist. However, Wave is rather generic, which means it has a strong "memory" factor. Still, it's a joy to wear on hot days since it makes the wearer feel as clean and as rejuvenated as having a cold shower.
- Top notes: Opens with Mango, Passionfruit, Guava, and Watermelon
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Freesia, Peony, and Pink Pepper
- Base notes: At the base, Amber, Sandalwood, Iris, and Musk
- Perfume Gender: Feminine
- Scent Accord: Floral Fruity
- Longevity: 5 hours

Champion Energy by Davidoff
This is an excellent and reasonably priced summer cologne. It's well-balanced and clean, and while the longevity isn't particularly lasting, that's not always a bad thing. Why wear a twelve-hour-lasting cologne if you're only going to be out for three? The first notes are nothing new, but if you like citrus perfumes, you'll love it.
- Top notes: Opens with Bergamot and Grapefruit
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Galbanum and Spices
- Base notes: At the base, Virginia Cedar and Oakmoss
- Perfume Gender: Masculine
- Scent Accord: Aromatic Spicy
- Longevity: 4 hours plus

Horizon by Davidoff
This perfume evokes a sense of liberation, an acceptance of change, and a joyous forward march towards the Horizon. Imagine yourself on an open highway, summer has begun its sluggish shift into fall, and you're traveling slowly towards your destination. The sun is setting, and the area around you is bathed in that lovely magic hour glow. That moment is the interpretation of this perfume.
The overall fragrance is exhilarating and freeing. The first notes are gentle and polished Mandarin Orange on a sly Ginger note. They complement each other nicely. Their interaction leads you into a peaceful Cedar note, which grounds the fragrance in a lovely, smokey, lemony vetiver. The outcome is absolute confidence. The pepper gives a rustic feeling of adventure, resulting in one of the most amazing bases you would ever come across.
- Top notes: Opens with Mandarin Orange, Rosemary, Grapefruit, and Ginger
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Sasame, Nutmeg, Pepper, Cedar and Patchouli
- Base notes: At the base, Cacao Pod
- Perfume Gender: Masculine
- Scent Accord: Woody Spicy
- Longevity: 5 hours plus
- Sillage: Moderate

Cool Water by Davidoff
Cool Water is a straightforward and wonderful tune that doesn't pretend to be extravagantly pricey. This delicate beauty that became a household name in the fragrance world falls somewhere between Green Irish Tweed and Millésime Impérial.
This perfume opens with a minty dihydromyrcenol explosion, then settles into a symphony that combines calone, with ambergris and some sort of sweet fruit. Additionally, there is a green lavender hue floating dancing around with a noticeable violet accord, which you might attribute to the neroli and sandalwood components. It's difficult to add anything to what has already been said over and over about Cool Water.
- Top notes: Opens with Coriander, Cologne, Rosemary, Green Notes, Mint, Lavender, and Sea Water
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Jasmine, Geranium, Neroli, and Sandalwood
- Base notes: At the base, AMbergris, Cedar, Oakmoss, Tobacco, and Musk
- Perfume Gender: Masculine
- Scent Accord: Aromatic Aquatic
- Longevity: 8 hours
- Sillage: Strong
- Projection: Moderate

Hot Water by Davidoff
Hot Water is a very sweet and spicy cologne, but unmistakably classy at the same time. It's very much a gentleman's fragrance that is a great scent for late fall into winter, and would also perform well in the early spring when things are just starting to get sunny again but the air itself is still cool. It is indeed very peppery, but not like black pepper or pink pepper is, it's something a little fresher, closer to a very mild chopped chili pepper with the seeds taken out. Outside of that, it's quite fresh and spicy, with basil and patchouli bringing some zest to the party, like a slightly more aggressive version of CK Obsession for Men.
- Top notes: Opens with Basil and Wormwood
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Patchouli and Paprika
- Base notes: At the base, Styrax and Benzoin
- Perfume Gender: Masculine
- Scent Accord: Amber Spicy
- Longevity: 7 hours plus
- Sillage: Moderate
- Projection: Moderate
-
Adventure by Davidoff
Adventure is an ideal gym fragrance, a good office fragrance too because it is pleasant and inoffensive, albeit fleeting. It's a classy little number that is a little like the now-discontinued Kanon Agarwood which had a similar style of woodiness.
Adventure opens with a classic citrus overture, then becomes a linear, full-bodied, woody blend that performs well for about an hour, then it fades.
Still, it’s a stylish variation on a classic gentleman’s woody fragrance.
- Top notes: Opens with Mate, Tea Leaf, Bergamot, Lemon, Pepper, and Orange
- Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Sesame and Pimento
- Base notes: At the base, WHite Musk, Vetiver, and Cedar
- Perfume Gender: Masculine
- Scent Accord: Woody Spicy
- Longevity: 5 hours
- Sillage: Moderate
