The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Royal Mayfair, blue is Ultraviolet. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

VanillaWhy it might work
- Light over deepRoyal Mayfair brings aromatic and citrus; Ultraviolet brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Royal Mayfair is long lasting and moderate, Ultraviolet moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointRoyal Mayfair first, then Ultraviolet over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
