Citrus, sweet and fresh meets citrus, woody and amber. They share three accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Nina, blue is Lucius. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepNina brings citrus; Lucius brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, sweet and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Nina is moderate on both, Lucius long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLucius first, then Nina over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
