How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Max'd, blue is Risque. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work
  • Light over deepRisque brings citrus; Max'd brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and floral run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Max'd is long lasting and strong, Risque long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointMax'd first, then Risque over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
