$26.01About Perry Ellis Citron
Perry Ellis Citron arrived as a breath of fresh air in the Perry Ellis fragrance collection. It simply doesn't pretend to be something different from what it is-a citrus cologne that depends fully on what gives citrus its appetizing smell. Bright, uncomplicated, and genuinely wearable. Far from the typical fragrances that are overly engineered, Citron smells more like a person than a chemistry set; it has a refreshing scent that is completely true to itself. The Perry Ellis brand has long recognized the difference between what people want to smell like and what department stores want them to use. Citron finds itself in that perfect place.
Fragrance Family:
Citrus, Fresh Aromatic
Scent Type:
Bright, zesty, invigorating, clean, slightly sweet
Notes:
The opening hits with a vibrant blend of citrus notes—lemon, lime, and grapefruit collide without stepping on each other. It is sharp and nearly peppery in those sinful seconds. The soul rearranges things with mellow fruity and flowery sidelines whereby it does not become flat. The conclusion, however, is marked by a faint but pleasant earthy and musk with a balanced feeling of weight that hangs lightly in the air. To me, the picture is like a ripe fruit breaking in the warm morning sun—open, simple, and sincerely airy.
Suggested Use
This works best on pulse points: your wrists, neck, and the base of your throat. A quick spray on the inner elbow or behind your ears extends the wear throughout the day without overdoing it. The beauty of Citron is that it responds well to body heat, so the citrus notes brighten in warm weather and the base notes reveal themselves more on warmer skin. One to two spritzes is plenty—this isn't a fragrance that demands attention, but rather one that draws people in when they get close.

Smells wonderful, but doesn't last (at least on my skin)
Love this scent, fresh, sexy, but doesn't last on me, i.e., it wears off quick. Maybe it's me (?).
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
