- Light over deepOn The Beach brings aromatic and citrus; Santal Austral brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put On The Beach in summer and Santal Austral in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: On The Beach is moderate on both, Santal Austral long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSantal Austral first, then On The Beach over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
