How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Love in Black, blue is Cheeky Smile. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Amber XtremeWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenLove in Black brings floral; Cheeky Smile brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadPowdery, woody and musky run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Love in Black is long lasting and moderate, Cheeky Smile long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCheeky Smile first, then Love in Black over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
