- Light over deepElixir of Love brings aromatic; L'Anarchiste brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, white floral, musky and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Elixir of Love in spring and summer and L'Anarchiste in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Elixir of Love is moderate on both, L'Anarchiste long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL'Anarchiste first, then Elixir of Love over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
