Prior to his tragic passing in 1986, Perry Ellis was a well-known fashion designer in the 1970s and 80s. Since Ellis' passing, the company has employed a number of well-known designers, such as Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford, and Isaac Mizrahi. The company discontinued its womenswear line in 2003, although it is still popular and well-known for its upscale menswear and fragrances today. With time, the Perry Ellis’ range grew to include menswear, accessories, shoes, and fragrances. In 1985, Perry Ellis for Women and Perry Ellis for Men were released as the brand’s first perfumes. So let us take a look at what we deem the best Perry Ellis perfumes that have been offered to us since then.

• 360° Purple by Perry Ellis

• 360° Red by Perry Ellis

• Perry Woman by Perry Ellis

• 18 by Perry Ellis

• Perry Ellis by Perry Ellis

• 360° Coral by Perry Ellis

 

360° Coral is a fresh floral, but the base is complex enough to get the job done.  The perfume is an instant mood lifter with the ideal balance of citrus and florals resting on a strong base. If this is the sort of fragrance you like, you could wear this fragrance all year, but it would be best in spring and summer. It smells like pineapple, pear, and something that smells like coconut suntan lotion; it smells playful, cheerful, upbeat, and vibrant. It begins fruity, but quickly becomes musky, with the fruits staying just in the background. If you put your nose to the aroma and breathe deeply, you'll notice a metallic tang as it dries down.

• 360° Purple by Perry Ellis

 

You should bring 360° Purple along when you go to the beach or on your Spring Break trip, it would give you a happy, upbeat feeling. While being sweet, fruity and floral with a fresh twist, similar to a non-creamy, very fresh-smelling hand soap. This fresh, attractive fragrance is upbeat, lighthearted, and unquestionably mood-enhancing. As the musk notes grow more noticeable, the longer it stays on the skin and transitions into a quieter, less pronounced chord.

• 360° Red by Perry Ellis

 

360° Red is a lovely trendy fragrance. It exudes just the right amount of spice and florals. It begins with a gorgeous, juicy plum note and is encircled by a lovely green party and a good quantity of cyclamen (Persian violet), giving off a fruity-floral that is little dusty and enveloped in bittersweet greens. With some vibrant jasmine and fluffy orange blossoms, the heart is a delicate floral place. A soft sunlight warmth from mimosa and the exotic whisper of orchids seem to even everything out.  Additionally, the dry down brings forth a gentle, ambery-musky touch that makes it ideal for a woman in her thirties. The drydown is quite straightforward, with a reference to the orientals; it clings to the skin and stays warm and musky, without being too animalic or overpowering. Whoever wears this leaves behind a lush trail and the scent of the flowers that adhere to their skin.

• Perry Woman by Perry Ellis

 

Perry Ellis strikes again with this  fragrance, which, like Perry Man, is rich with notes and has been combined with an unusual acidic twist. Without the leather notes, the opening immediately brings to mind In Leather Aigner for Women. It has very recognizable orchid, a smidgen of jasmine, rose, and a tinge of tuberose. The orris root and sandalwood in the drydown give it a powdery and slightly creamy quality.

• Top notes: Opens with Water Lily, Bergamot, and Orchid

• 18 by Perry Ellis

 

This perfume is absolutely lovely; 18 is a fragrance that brings to mind the sweetness of coconut milk. It is a sweet, appealing spring/summer fragrance that would be perfect for warm or hot days. It works well as  a vacation fragrance too because it is casual, enjoyable, and not excessively complex. When you want something to improve your spirits, this fragrance does it best.

• 360° Red For Men by Perry Ellis

• 360° White For Men by Perry Ellis

• Reserve for Men by Perry Ellis

• Night by Perry Ellis

• Black Vanilla Absolute by Perry Ellis

 

Black Vanilla Absolute is about rum that tastes  dark, spiced, and has been somewhat aged in an oak barrel. so this vanilla is undoubtedly alcoholic. Then, if you could picture adding whole vanilla pods to the rum until there was nothing left in the barrel except rum, and letting them soak and extract the taste and fragrance from the pods. This smells almost exactly like that. Although it is detectable, the tobacco serves as the rum and vanilla's supporting and grounding influence.

If you enjoy boozy vanillas with a hint of light tobacco, this fragrance is for you. White tobacco pairs beautifully with rum and vanilla absolute.

• 360° Red For Men by Perry Ellis

 

360° Red is an excellent replica of Aqua Di Gio by Giorgio Armani, they have similar scent profiles and overtones. This perfume begins with slightly sweet, lemony, fresh aquatic, and extremely pronounced woodsy and peppery undertones. It also has a grassy or rooty vibe that can be felt in the background. This is undoubtedly one of those light fragrances that is intended to be very simple to wear but still have enough complementing accords to avoid becoming monotonous. It's a fantastic freshie for the hot summer months. The perfume truly gives you something to be proud of. It smells far higher quality than the pricing would imply, like most Perry Ellis scents do.

• 360° White For Men by Perry Ellis

 

360° White begins with a strong vanilla, zesty orange and lime flower notes. The vanilla remains constant as it moves into the tonka bean and musky dry down. This perfume is so delicious, but in a tidy manner that is still enjoyable and practical for most seasons and occasions. First, a strong vanilla scent is detected, followed by a faint coconut, wearable in both summer and winter because of its unwavering sweetness.

• Reserve for Men by Perry Ellis

 

Reserve gives a mild projection of sweet, citrus, fruity, spicy, floral, and woody notes that may be detected in the opening of Perry Ellis Reserve. The result is a bright, joyful, and energetic first impression. The most noticeable notes are juniper berries, bergamot, and lavender; juniper berries add a fruity, woodsy, slightly zesty note; bergamot sharpens this and other notes; lavender makes the fragrance seem clean and fresh; and spices are a blended touch, not prominent but detectable. The woody tones start to emerge as the smell dries down as the fragrance intensifies to become audible.

• Night by Perry Ellis

 

With an emphasis on the Blood, Perry Ellis Night is an eruption of rich and tangy Blood Orange. Its intense lemony character does remind one of blood, and a faint metallic undertone lends this scent the mystique of a vampire—rather, one who is trying to lure one on a summer night.

This perfume has a certain grandeur, but there's also something fresh and confident about it. The pomelo enhances the sweet and sour flavor of the blood orange, which is the main ingredient. The seductive sensation of finally finding your game for the night is given when the aroma dries down to a smooth and gentle amber.

Although it follows a linear path, it finds confidence in the powerful citrus, and that trust is not misplaced.

• Top notes: Opens with Pomelo and Blood Orange
• Middle notes: At the heart of the fragrance lies Geranium and Virginia Cedar
• Base notes: At the base, Amber, Woody Notes, Musk, and Oakmoss
• Perfume Gender: Masculine

Life is what you make it, and Perry Ellis makes it fragrant.
