How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Imitation Man, blue is Myrrh. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

MuskWhy it might work
- Light over deepMyrrh brings aromatic; Imitation Man brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list leather, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadLeather and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Imitation Man is long lasting and strong, Myrrh eternal and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMyrrh first, then Imitation Man over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
