- Light over deepEnergy C Lime brings citrus; Arashiyama brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Arashiyama in spring and Energy C Lime in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Arashiyama is moderate on both, Energy C Lime moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOne spray of each, on different spots.Neither is clearly deeper or stronger, so start even. Adjust to taste.
