- Flowers over greenCarthusia Lady brings floral; Calamity J. brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list iris, musk and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, woody, powdery and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Carthusia Lady is moderate on both, Calamity J. moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCalamity J. first, then Carthusia Lady over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
