- Light over deepL'Homme brings aromatic; Gris Montaigne brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, earthy, patchouli and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Gris Montaigne is long lasting and moderate, L'Homme moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL'Homme first, then Gris Montaigne over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
