Aldehydes and Ambergris for year-round wear.
Perry Ellis 18 Intense opens cool and breezy, leading with Aldehydes, Bergamot and Lavender for its first impression on the skin.

Wearers consistently describe Perry Ellis 18 Intense as a aquatic scent defined by aldehydes, bergamot and lavender. The ambergris and cedar base draws the most mentions for the impression it leaves.

Lasts about 5 hours with strong sillage. The Ambergris drydown is my favorite part — warm and not overpowering.
Opens a little sharp with Aldehydes but the Ambergris base is what sells it for me.

Perry Ellis 18 Intense opens with Aldehydes, Bergamot and Lavender, moves through a heart of Rosemary, and settles on Ambergris, Cedar and Musk. Overall it reads as a aquatic fragrance.
Expect around 5 hours of wear, with strong sillage and moderate projection that settles closer to the skin over time.
Yes — its aquatic profile suits year-round wear, both daytime and evening depending on the occasion.
Top: Aldehydes, Bergamot and Lavender. Heart: Rosemary. Base: Ambergris, Cedar and Musk.
It works as a versatile signature; its strong sillage keeps it appropriate for both casual and dressed settings.
Projection is moderate in the opening hours, driven by its Ambergris, Cedar and Musk foundation, before it softens to a skin scent.
