ClearwoodWhy it might work
- Light over deepTaif brings citrus; CH Men Grand Tour brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadFresh spicy, woody, aromatic and amber run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put CH Men Grand Tour in fall and winter and Taif in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: CH Men Grand Tour is long lasting and strong, Taif long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCH Men Grand Tour first, then Taif over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
