Why it might work
  • Light over deepStrip brings aromatic; Ménage à Trois brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list ylang-ylang, amber, musk and vetiver and 2 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, aromatic, earthy and musky run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Strip is moderate on both, Ménage à Trois long lasting and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
