- Sweet meets spiceHo Hang brings amber; Black Star Her brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, patchouli and tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, sweet and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Black Star Her is moderate on both, Ho Hang moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBlack Star Her first, then Ho Hang over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
