- A shared threadVanilla, sweet, woody and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: What About Pop is moderate on both, Frustration moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFrustration first, then What About Pop over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
