AmberWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenNotorious brings floral; Vibrant Leather Oud brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Notorious is moderate on both, Vibrant Leather Oud moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointNotorious first, then Vibrant Leather Oud over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
