Why it might work
  • Light over deepColonia Club brings aromatic, citrus and green; Papilio brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and neroli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic and citrus run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Colonia Club in spring and summer and Papilio in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Colonia Club is moderate on both, Papilio moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
What to watch

A starting pointPapilio first, then Colonia Club over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
