Rotating on z axis

I'd like to rotate this slightly on z-axis.

 

I understand that perspective warp does this. but this only moves the part of the image where i have selected the pin. It  doesn't move the whole object.

 

How do i rotate it?

@Summayah5FC7 Photoshop stopped support for 3D with version 22.2 - you may need to go back to that version to manage this. In there you would need to select each item individually to rotate on their own independent axis.

@Kevin Stohlmeyer I got the impression, from this and a previous thread, that this is not starting with 3D objects but with a 2D image, in which case going back to a version with 3D support will still not achieve the OP's aim.

I had the opposite impression - thought this came from a 3D source or Dimensions.

Which axis is Z? Some 3D apps class Z as up/down, others as toward or away from the camera.

 

If you mean rotate about a vertical (up/down) axis then you will not do that to objects in a 2D image. It would bring into view elements that are currently hidden, and hide other elements that are currently in view.  It could be simulated with some extensive cloning but even then the light direction would give it away.  The time taken to make it convincing would be easier spent taking the picture again.

 

Note: It is very easy to do this if working with 3D models as you just spin the model and re-render.

so at the moment the products are facing directly towards me. Is it possible to adjust them so they face a bit at an angle?
