- Light over deepL'Homme brings aromatic; Qafiya 4 brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAmber, woody, warm spicy and sweet run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Qafiya 4 is very weak and enormous, L'Homme moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointQafiya 4 first, then L'Homme over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
