- Sweet meets spiceNew York Intense brings amber; Smart brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Smart is moderate on both, New York Intense long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSmart first, then New York Intense over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
