The blend

How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Azzura, blue is Coal. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work

Light over deepAzzura brings citrus and green; Coal brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
A shared threadAromatic, soft spicy and woody run through both.
Opposite seasonsVoters put Azzura in summer and Coal in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Azzura is moderate on both, Coal moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointCoal first, then Azzura over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
