The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is L’Etrog, blue is GRAND CUVÉE. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepL’Etrog brings citrus and aromatic; GRAND CUVÉE brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, woody, sweet and fruity run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L’Etrog is moderate on both, GRAND CUVÉE moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointGRAND CUVÉE first, then L’Etrog over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
