- Sweet meets spiceFantastic Oud brings amber; Palo Santo brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody and warm spicy run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Palo Santo is moderate on both, Fantastic Oud long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFantastic Oud first, then Palo Santo over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
