PlumWhy it might work
- Light over deepSunshine Man brings aromatic; Silver Cristal brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanilla and cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sunshine Man is long lasting and strong, Silver Cristal eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSilver Cristal first, then Sunshine Man over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
