- A shared threadWarm spicy, earthy, amber and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: New York Forever is long lasting and moderate, L'Insomnuit long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointNew York Forever first, then L'Insomnuit over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
