BenzoinWhy it might work
- Light over deepCastley brings citrus; CH Insignia brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, leather and rose, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, warm spicy, woody and oud run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put CH Insignia in fall and winter and Castley in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: CH Insignia is long lasting and strong, Castley long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCH Insignia first, then Castley over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
