I was introduced to this fragrance by a former coworker who loved this fragrance. When she wore it, I made sure to stand back as far as possible to avoid the smell! Not too long after that, I was actually gifted a bottle, and it smelled horrible on me too! It has a weird note that immediately calls to mind bug spray!

I wish I could say that it was simply a chemistry issue, but I hate this on every woman I've encountered wearing it. It is immediately recognizable, and it often leaves me with a headache.

I really LOVE this! I'd never even heard of it but I was in Home Depot of all places and one of the female SA's smelled like a really fresh shampoo. It was strong enough that I was sniffing down the aisle to find the source, but when I found her it was not overwhelming, just really really nice. I asked her what she was wearing and she replied Perry Ellis 360". I had been searching for a shampoo-y scent for ages and was looking for something to replace Amazing Grace which doesn't seem to have any lasting power now that Coty bough them out, which is a shame. I had switched to JLo Glow which was kind of shampoo-y and some scented oil dupes of the old Herbal Essence Green scent from the 70's shampoo. 360 is by far the best smelling clean, fresh scent on me. It does not pull cloyingly sweet on me as most scents do. It's just clean, fresh and bright. A nice mix of citrus, florals and a hint of musk I think. It is quite strong though, so I just dab it on my skin and lightly misted my coat and scarf once and that is plenty. I have worn it daily since I found it on Amazon, and I hope they keep making it as it seems kind of obscure.
EDIT: The drydown on this is a little odd on me. It smells vaguely like spilled coffee, which isn't exactly bad, just odd. I wear this less since I figured out that the spilled coffee smell was coming from ME when I wear this. It's still lovely and shampoo-y though. Sadly my chemistry is tricky.

This fragrance was gifted to me and I absolutely hate it. Maybe it's because I dislike citrusy scents but this one makes me dizzy when I smell it on myself or others. Somebody I know wears it also and it is very overwhelming.

Went onto my skin as a blast of mildew and sourness, then dried to a pleasant aquatic citrus. Not anything I'd seek out though.

A nice fragrance. It is usually priced very well, and has a nice clean scent which works on me. It's not that memorable or unique in my book, but it does last, as another reviewer mentioned, and the large bottle I have will probably last me a good long while.

This was my signature fragrance for 5 or 6 years. I first bought this after smelling it on another person. It was so clean smelling, not sweet, and just a great fragrance. Interestingly, it didn't smell the same on me as it did on her, but I still liked it a lot.

After going through several bottles, I sampled a spritz or two at the perfume counter today and fell in love all over again. Vera Wang is my favorite now, but I bought a bottle just to change it up.

Don't over do it and you'll smell clean and light. Really nice and classy IMO.

I've bought this a few times now after receiving as a gift. This scent is clean, soft floral with a hint of musk or powder (not too much), not fruity at all. For some reason my husband doesn't like this on me, perhaps he smelled it when I first put it on...not sure. I like it most after it dies down a bit. I never feel like I could offend anyone. Its definitely a younger scent, although not too young. I will be buying it again as I just like to go back to it as a break from all my other fragrances. Its not expensive either which is a plus!

This has to be one of the worst fragrances I have every had the displeasure of smelling. A co worker bathes herself in this, and I have to say that it is absolutely horrifying. It makes my eyes literally water and burn. God awful crap.

Actually, received a tiny bottle of this last year for Christmas. Of course before opening had to come to makeupally to check the reviews which didn't seem too good. I noticed most say it's a good summer fragrance but I've been wearing now and it is growing on me. I noticed one review said smelled like bug spray. I think at first it slightly did but has dried to a nice sweet smell. I doubt I will buy again as there are so many other fragrances I want to try. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be though, a nice change. Also nice not to smell like everybody else does as this is probably not as popular.

Ohh the memories, just like a lot that is mentioned here! I remember being a teenager when I smelled this fragrance on my older cousin. I thought she was cool for knowing the "in" fragrances then, but turns out this one has been "in" for me 15yrs later!! I wear this only on special occasions & the b/f cannot get enough of me (I think he remembers this one from when we were kids!) It is not a spicy musk scent that I typically adore; it reminds me of a soft & delicate woman that I like to pretend to be now & then ;) It is still a change of pace for me & melts the man so I imagine I will keep this one at all times in the collection!

This scent reminds me of summer, I'm not sure why. I've worn this off and on for years. It's not my fav, but I seem to come back to it when the warm months show up. It reminds me faintly of some kind of tanning lotion.

This scent has great memories for me, and I forgot about it for a couple of years until I noticed it lurking behind several of my perfumes. (I own over 80 scents and my mind has become so muddled, I've forgotten some of my most beloved ones loll.)

Unlike some of the newer, aquatic, nauseatingly sweet and overly-girly scents that many fragrances boast today, this one pulls it off if you like squeaky clean and are craving an energy boost. It hallmarks a crisp energy that buoys my spirits, although admittedly the drydown takes awhile. It's not one of those fragrances that you spritz on 5 minutes before you rush out the door. Give it a chance for the drydown, or everyone's eyes will be crossing when you walk by if you don't. It takes a slow hand and a little time to bloom to its fullest. My chemistry can take it, although apparently some can't. I do give it thumbs up for being unique, too, and the fact that in turn, it thumbs its nose at all the common, pop scents currently out there.

My 2nd favorite fragrance behind Gap's Grass. I'm shocked at the negative reviews on here...I think this is so floral/clean/fresh, it makes me think of getting all dolled up in the summertime for a special event...I love this perfume!

This is a fragrance I wore when my now-husband and I started dating 12 years ago. I love it... but I just can't wear it anymore. It's one of those fragrances that is now so replete with bittersweet memories that I can only have it in my fragrances-that-I-only-smell-when-I-want-to-
reminisce collection... Delightful, clean, floral, lovely. I discovered it when a coworker wore it and I had to know what it was. Turns out it smelled better on her than it did on me, but I still loved it! I've been through many bottles throughout the years.

This is not a light scent but it is a very uncommon, distinctive, clean, fresh floral scent with some green notes, too. It will initially go on sharp but after drydown the sharpness and the citrus soften, leaving a clean smelling floral that is very long lasting. It is a fragrance I enjoy and got many compliments on when I wore it, but I also found it a bit strong for my liking and it tended to give me a headache. I would not repurchase; however, I really love the 360 White for Men (yes, the men's cologne, not the women's), so see my review of that product!



Year Introduced: 1993
Scent Type: Floral
Top Notes: Melon, tangerine, osmanthus, lily, cool blue rose
Heart Notes: Lily of the valley, lavender, water lily, sage
Base Notes: Sandalwood, vanilla, vetiver, amber, musk
