- Light over deepMediterraneo Parfum brings citrus, green and aromatic; 1681 brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Mediterraneo Parfum in summer and 1681 in fall and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Mediterraneo Parfum is long lasting and moderate, 1681 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point1681 first, then Mediterraneo Parfum over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
