The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Ebene Fume, blue is Rocabar. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepRocabar brings aromatic; Ebene Fume brings woody, amber and smoky. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, amber, warm spicy and fresh spicy run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ebene Fume is long lasting and moderate, Rocabar moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEbene Fume first, then Rocabar over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
