- Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, musky and floral run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: R.E.M. is moderate on both, Musk Mantra moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMusk Mantra first, then R.E.M. over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
