CashmeranWhy it might work
- Light over deepSedley brings citrus and aromatic; Feminite du Bois brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Feminite du Bois in fall and winter and Sedley in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Feminite du Bois is long lasting and moderate, Sedley moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFeminite du Bois first, then Sedley over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
