Why it might work
  • Light over deepRemax brings citrus; Islay brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadCitrus, warm spicy, woody and musky run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Remax in summer and Islay in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
What to watch
  • One will leadIslay is voted eternal and enormous; Remax very weak and moderate. Expect Islay to lead and Remax to fade first.
A starting pointOne spray of Islay, two of Remax over it.Weighted toward the one that fades first. Adjust to taste.
