Davidoff Champion Energy is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011, created by Aurélien Guichard. Champion Energy opens with Bergamot and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Spicy and Galbanum, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Oakmoss. Davidoff's Champion Energy carries a Statement verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag. Plenty find it a cheap, synthetic citrus bomb with abysmal performance, despite the 'Energy' moniker. Others reckon it's a perfectly pleasant, affordable, fresh daily driver if you manage expectations regarding longevity and don't mind the kitsch bottle. Try before you buy.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport

Its fresh, citrusy profile and 'energy' branding align well with sporting activities and casual wear, as noted by several reviewers. However, its often-criticised poor longevity and projection make it less suitable for formal events or dates, where a stronger and more lasting impression is desired. It's a decent choice for the office if applied lightly, but it's not a standout for professional settings.

About

Opens with a sharp, zesty burst of grapefruit and bergamot, delivering a powerful citrus punch straight away. This invigorating top soon gives way to a fresh spicy heart, with hints of green galbanum adding an aromatic depth. The base, though often fleeting, attempts a classic masculine finish with damp oakmoss and dry cedar, aiming for a woody, clean dry-down that some find heavenly and others claim is non-existent.
