- Flowers over greenBelle de Niassa brings floral; Gaultier2 brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadWhite floral and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Belle de Niassa in summer and spring and Gaultier2 in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Belle de Niassa is moderate on both, Gaultier2 long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointGaultier2 first, then Belle de Niassa over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
