Why it might work
  • Light over deepAmerican Psycho brings aromatic; Black Onyx brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic, white floral, citrus and woody run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put American Psycho in summer and Black Onyx in spring and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: American Psycho is long lasting and moderate, Black Onyx moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
