- Notes in commonBoth list pink pepper and vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Empire is moderate on both, Pine in the Sun moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEmpire first, then Pine in the Sun over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
