18 For Men

Perry Ellis 18 For Men, released in 2006, is a citrus-led masculine fragrance with a notable floral side and lighter spicy, woody, fresh and leather touches. It is a clean, easy-going scent with a slightly sporty character.

Bergamot, lemon and mixed citruses give a bright, sparkling opening, and a sea water note adds a fresh, salty, airy feel. Jasmine and geranium bring a gentle floral heart, the geranium green and slightly minty, while spicy notes add a little warmth. In the base, sandalwood gives a creamy smoothness and birch a faintly smoky, leathery dryness that keeps it masculine.

This is an approachable everyday fragrance. Its citrus and marine freshness suits spring and summer, daytime wear, the office, the gym bag and casual weekends. It should appeal to men who like clean, fresh scents that are easy to wear without much thought, and to those who want a light citrus fragrance with a touch of floral and woody depth to keep it from feeling thin.
