Perry Ellis Citron

Rich lemon to start with wood and musk to finish. I enjoyed wearing this to the office today. Great for warm weather. Reminds me of both Versace Eros and Anonymous by Thallium (the latter which, still, is not listed on Fragrantica). Differences are Perry Ellis Citron doesn't have the vanilla of Eros and is lighter than Anon (which lasts longer and projects more, if that's your thing). I think it's both masculine and sophisticated. This cologne is pretty inexpensive so I probably will buy a bottle to add to the rotation for the summer.

Smells exactly like Montblanc Legend Spirit 99% similar, which is 90% similar to Invictus itself. I would consider this a very close Invictus inspired fragrance for younger guys. I think its the best out of the 4 Perry ellis edt’s in this bottle style, and I’ve smelled them all.

It's about time this one got added!;) Great fizzy/sparkling citrus opening that quickly fades after about 10minutes or so. Then the apple, pepper and star anise come forward and a good dose of lavender begins creeping in as well. At this point I think to myself, "wow, this reminds me of Ferregamo F Pour Homme!" Which isn't a bad thing, since they are both nice fragrances....but after the surprisingly well done opening, I'm a little let down with the whole been there, smelt that before:/ Once it hits the drydown stage and the Ambroxan/geranium kicks in, with the apple still holding on...this gets sweeter, creamy and a little powdery. Giving a slight nod to Versace Eros IMO.(how is there no tonka in this, I swear I smell it?!) Longevity seems to be quite good with just a few sprays from my sample, but honestly more testing is needed to be sure. I am a big fan of this cheapie house in general, so had high hopes and was really looking forward to trying this. It's certainly a quality fragrance with three distinct phases, but ultimately this will be a pass on buying a full bottle since I already own the fragrances that this closely mimics. Still a good outing for PE and I suggest giving it a sniff if you get the chance!:) Teetering on the brink between neutral and thumbs up....but just enough to tip the scales in its favor.

Fresh citrus. Reminds me of Invictus Aqua, but not as harsh or distinctive. Good value.

Bright zesty opening with an urban metallic drydown. It's probably discontinued as ME frags have took over and have way better longevity and sillage. If you are against ME frags for whatever reason and find this for cheap then it's a decent grab for warm weather but you will need to reapply every 3 or 4 hours
