by Perry Ellis

Rip off of Rochas Man and a cheap one at that.

Nighttime. DrPepper.

I have a soft spot for this one. It doesn't last all that long, it's not all that complex, but man do I ever like it. It's got a lot of powder up front, but combined with an almost purple accord that reminds me of Dr. Pepper. It's cozy, it's sweet, it's evocative, it's something on which I've gotten more than a few compliments. A go-to fragrance when I don't have time to think about what to wear out that evening, it's almost universally appealing if not particularly impressive on any one front. And it's the first scent that ever truly got the attention of my Basenoter girlfriend, so there's that ...

A very warm fragrance with some spices and almost a leathery smell. Similar to Le Male, but a bit warmer and less "vanilla" smell so to speak. A lot of people wear this as evening wear, which I definitely get, but I primarily wear this for work when wearing a dark suit or shirt and tie. Would recommend it, but im not jumping for joy.

If you like 360 White (a JPG La Male clone) you will love 360 Black because they are similar, but black has extra spices in it which makes it slightly more masculine and complex. Both are cold weather, romantic or evening colognes though so I don't feel it is fair to compare them to the original 360.

I was a decent fan of Perry Ellis 360 when I was younger, back in 1998, I wore it in High School, because I thought it was kind of different where I lived. A few months ago, I was looking for something with a dark overtone, and a sweet smell.

This scent works for me, whenever I want something a little subtle, but unique. I'd compare it most closely with the new "La Nuit De L'Homme". In the same vein, but less distinct and alot cheaper.

SirSlarty's review describes 360 Black quite well with the phrase, "Smells just like 360 White with tea."
This could come across as disappointing for some, especially if you already own White, Le Male, or any of the dozens now like it. But this turned out to be exactly what I wish 360 White was when I bought it - I enjoy the fragrance (White) overall, especially the near-legendary performance, but wish it was a bit less sweet and had another dynamic to its character. In this regard Black suits my wishes nicely. If it had a peppery bite to it I think it would be better still, but so far this is my favorite of the P.E. 360 line. It's non-situational, pleasant to a fault and utterly failsafe.
