How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is The Game, blue is BLV Pour Homme. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepThe Game brings aromatic; BLV Pour Homme brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put The Game in fall and winter and BLV Pour Homme in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: The Game is moderate on both, BLV Pour Homme moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointThe Game first, then BLV Pour Homme over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
