- Light over deepEnclave brings aromatic; Faux Semblant brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list olibanum and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, warm spicy, woody and patchouli run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Enclave is long lasting and strong, Faux Semblant long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFaux Semblant first, then Enclave over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
