Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Horizon

Davidoff Horizon is a 'love it or hate it' situation thanks to its divisive performance. Some hail it as an absolute cheapie gem, while others are left wondering where it went. Definitely try before you buy a full bottle.

Statement

Our Verdict - Del Mar Baldessarini

This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some folks reckon it's a classy, versatile number; others call it a generic, forgettable aquatic that barely leaves a trace. If you're after something universally lauded, look elsewhere. If you're willing to take a punt on a polarizing scent, you might find a hidden gem.

Season and Occasion Fit

Horizon

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

Also Works:

Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Casual

Also Works:

Office Date

Its fresh and clean, albeit often subtle, character makes it suitable for office and casual wear. The variable performance, which many describe as weak, means it's less ideal for formal events or dates where strong projection is often desired, though some find it perfect for semi-formal settings.

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Sport

Its moderate sillage and short longevity make it suitable for office wear, where discretion is key. The generic and 'safe' nature means it won't stand out on a date or formal event, but its fresh, clean accords make it an easy choice for casual outings or even light activity.
