- Light over deepErdenstern brings aromatic; Vetiver Coeur brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list vetiver and tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadSweet, aromatic, woody and earthy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Erdenstern in fall and Vetiver Coeur in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Erdenstern is moderate on both, Vetiver Coeur long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointErdenstern first, then Vetiver Coeur over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
