Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Adventure EDT
Davidoff Adventure is a divisive scent: some find it a delightful, subtle everyday wear that defies its price tag, while others are utterly put off by its perceived linearity and woeful performance. Expect a fresh, spicy ride, but don't count on it lasting the journey.

Our Verdict - Outing II For Men EDP
A budget version of Davidoff Adventure - the same quietly confident woody-spicy blend of citrus, peppery pimento and cedar over vetiver and musk. Outing II captures Adventure's versatile, cold-weather character but reads flatter and shorter-lived than the designer original, with a louder, simpler spice up top.
