- Light over deepSandalo brings aromatic and citrus; Secret Obsession brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, fresh spicy and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Secret Obsession is moderate on both, Sandalo long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSecret Obsession first, then Sandalo over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
