- Light over deepIllicit Flower brings citrus; Elevator Music brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk and jasmine, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, musky, floral and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Elevator Music is moderate on both, Illicit Flower moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointElevator Music first, then Illicit Flower over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
