- Light over deepOsmanthus Absolut Oil brings citrus; Blonde Amber brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list osmanthus, jasmine, vetiver and saffron and 1 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFruity, woody, aromatic and sweet run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Osmanthus Absolut Oil in spring and summer and Blonde Amber in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
A starting pointBlonde Amber first, then Osmanthus Absolut Oil over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
