Perry Ellis Love
Perry Ellis (2011)

I am quite seriously reviewing a deodorant in this scent. I normally wouldn't, but -

A. This deodorant is STRONG.

B. This deodorant is GORGEOUS.

So, I can only assume the perfume is absolutely wonderful. I am not exaggerating or being dramatic when I say, this is the best, and most beautifully fragrant deodorant I've ever had. I won't, however, rate performance here because deo isn't adequate to know how the perfume would fare.

Enough about this being deodorant... 😮‍💨😅😂 On the basis of scent itself, this is stunning. It's absolutely Chanel-esque. Slightly (and I do mean slightly) less refined overall, and slightly less crisp, but it could easily pass as Chanel. It also smells similar to Elie Saab Le Parfum Royal, if anyone is familiar with it (which I also described as smelling Chanel-esque).

There's hesperidic bergamot. There's a dry, peppery rose. There's clean musk. There's a blonde patchouli. It's upscale, feminine, and classically pretty.

This is so resemblant of Coco Mademoiselle and Le Parfum Royal (I own both), that I'm eager to wear this deodorant along with them 😂 It's funny, but I'm also completely serious (deodorant is your base scent and a default signature smell afterall, very important). I also will be keeping an eye out for a bottle of this.

Despite the difference in notes, this is essentially a dupe for Chanel Chance (edt,not edp), albeit one that is gone an hour later. Worth a look if you don't mind frequent reapplications.
