In order to use this layer, you need to make the build system aware of it.
Assuming the meta-perl layer exists at the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can add it to the build system by adding the location of the meta-perl layer to bblayers.conf, along with any other layers needed. e.g.:
BBLAYERS ?= "
/path/to/oe-core/meta
/path/to/layer/meta-perl \
