- Flowers over greenChestnut Cheeks brings floral; Castling brings woody and green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadSweet, floral and fresh run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Chestnut Cheeks is moderate on both, Castling moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointChestnut Cheeks first, then Castling over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
