- Light over deepThe Key brings citrus and aromatic; French Bouquet brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood and tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic and fresh run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put French Bouquet in fall and winter and The Key in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: French Bouquet is moderate on both, The Key long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFrench Bouquet first, then The Key over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
