- Light over deepMontabaco Cuba brings citrus; Ottoman Treasure brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAmber and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ottoman Treasure is long lasting and strong, Montabaco Cuba long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOttoman Treasure first, then Montabaco Cuba over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
