- A shared threadCitrus, fresh spicy and aromatic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Classic Newport is moderate on both, Tactics moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointTactics first, then Classic Newport over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
