- Light over deepThe Architects Club brings aromatic; Indigo Smoke brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list guaiac wood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic, amber and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: The Architects Club is moderate on both, Indigo Smoke moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointIndigo Smoke first, then The Architects Club over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
