CedarWhy it might work
- Light over deepAgent Provocateur Lace brings citrus; Bois Sikar brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, amber and sweet run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bois Sikar is long lasting and moderate, Agent Provocateur Lace moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBois Sikar first, then Agent Provocateur Lace over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
