CedarWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenRendez-Vous brings floral; Santal Carmin Cologne Absolute brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list white musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, leather and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Rendez-Vous is long lasting and moderate, Santal Carmin Cologne Absolute moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSantal Carmin Cologne Absolute first, then Rendez-Vous over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
