- Light over deepGenius Me brings citrus and aromatic; Balade Sauvage brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, citrus, aromatic and sweet run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Balade Sauvage is moderate on both, Genius Me moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBalade Sauvage first, then Genius Me over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
