Woody NotesWhy it might work
- A shared threadWoody and fresh run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Musc is long lasting and enormous, Encens Mythique D'Orient eternal and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEncens Mythique D'Orient first, then Musc over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
