- Light over deepSameera Noir brings citrus; 014 Purple Wood brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and earthy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Sameera Noir in spring and summer and 014 Purple Wood in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sameera Noir is long lasting and strong, 014 Purple Wood moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point014 Purple Wood first, then Sameera Noir over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
