MuskWhy it might work
- Light over deepSeductive Cedrat brings citrus; Costes 2 brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic, citrus and vanilla run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Costes 2 is weak and intimate, Seductive Cedrat moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCostes 2 first, then Seductive Cedrat over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
