- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic, woody and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Colonia Sandalo Concentree is long lasting and moderate, Profumo Eau de Parfum moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointProfumo Eau de Parfum first, then Colonia Sandalo Concentree over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
