Why it might work
  • Light over deepARC brings aromatic; Shadow Amor brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Shadow Amor is weak and moderate, ARC long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
