- A shared threadWoody, powdery, fresh and leather run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 212 Men Parfum is long lasting and moderate, Reckless long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointReckless first, then 212 Men Parfum over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
