- Sweet meets spiceQuartier Latin brings amber; Ambre D'Alexandrie brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, vanilla and powdery run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ambre D'Alexandrie is long lasting and moderate, Quartier Latin long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmbre D'Alexandrie first, then Quartier Latin over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
