SandalwoodWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenBy Any Other Name brings floral; Aoud Blue Notes brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose and bergamot, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFruity and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: By Any Other Name is moderate on both, Aoud Blue Notes long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAoud Blue Notes first, then By Any Other Name over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
