- Light over deepWhore Red brings citrus; Apple Brandy brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, powdery, woody and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Whore Red is long lasting and strong, Apple Brandy moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointApple Brandy first, then Whore Red over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
