- Light over deepFantastic Man brings aromatic; Terre d'Hermes Parfum brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadFresh spicy, woody, earthy and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Fantastic Man is very weak and enormous, Terre d'Hermes Parfum long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointTerre d'Hermes Parfum first, then Fantastic Man over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
