About This Perfume
Perry Ellis Portfolio Black smells like sweet, creamy citrus cola with earthy patchouli. It opens with citrus, moves into patchouli and settles on sandalwood, amber and musk. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This body spray is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. It suits date nights. Released in 2007.
In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for date nights.
- Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike creamy fragrances.
Around $13.

Scent profiles of the picks
For Perry Ellis 360° Red (Eau de Toilette, 2003), expect fresh plum and orange blossoms dusted with soft powder: cyclamen and orange leaf up top, amber and musk underneath. Perry Ellis 18 Orchid (Eau de Parfum, 2006) comes across as tropical passionfruit, jasmine and warm vanilla, with dewberry and passionfruit at the start and tonka bean, Indonesian patchouli leaf and vanilla at the base. Perry Ellis 360° Red for Men (Eau de Toilette, 2003) reads as citrus-spritzed sea breeze with spiced herbs, opening on lime and mandarin orange and drying down to musk, cedarwood and oakmoss.
