- Light over deepLove of Pink brings citrus; Musk Cologne brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list magnolia, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, sweet, powdery and floral run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Musk Cologne is long lasting and moderate, Love of Pink moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMusk Cologne first, then Love of Pink over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
