- Light over deepThe Omniscient Mr Thompson brings aromatic; Iris Malika brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list pink pepper, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, iris, powdery and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: The Omniscient Mr Thompson is moderate on both, Iris Malika moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointIris Malika first, then The Omniscient Mr Thompson over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
