Perry Ellis Bold Red opens with Red Apple and Finger Lime, settles into a heart of Green Notes, Ginger Blossom, and Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Mahogany, and Tonka Bean.

A juicy, fresh red apple scent with frustratingly fleeting performance. Great for a quick burst of uplifting fragrance, but don't expect it to stick around all day.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Bold Red opens with an invigorating burst of sweet, tart red apple and the zesty kick of finger lime, creating an immediately appealing and fresh introduction. As it settles, green notes emerge, interwoven with a subtle hint of ginger blossom and a whisper of pepper, adding a touch of verdant freshness. The dry down is a warm blend of earthy mahogany and smooth musk, softened by the creamy, sweet undertones of tonka bean, delivering a pleasant, if somewhat subtle, finish.
