Why it might work
  • Light over deepX Twist Tabac brings aromatic; Bois de Cedrat brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put X Twist Tabac in winter and fall and Bois de Cedrat in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: X Twist Tabac is moderate and enormous, Bois de Cedrat weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
