HeliotropeWhy it might work
- Light over deepRose America brings aromatic; Affaf brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadRose, fruity, sweet and warm spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Affaf in winter and Rose America in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Affaf is long lasting and enormous, Rose America long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAffaf first, then Rose America over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
