- Light over deepMesse de Minuit brings citrus; Tricorn brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy, balsamic and aromatic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Tricorn is long lasting and moderate, Messe de Minuit moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointTricorn first, then Messe de Minuit over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
