About This Perfume
Perry Ellis America for Men smells like cool citrus, sage air after a seaside breeze. It opens with sage, aniseed and bergamot, moves into basil, geranium and juniper and settles on neroli, amber and leather. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days. Released in 1996.
Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
