Bay LeafWhy it might work
- Light over deepHigher Energy brings aromatic; Bayrhum Vetiver brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list pepper and vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFresh spicy, aromatic, woody and earthy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Higher Energy in summer and spring and Bayrhum Vetiver in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Higher Energy is moderate on both, Bayrhum Vetiver very weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBayrhum Vetiver first, then Higher Energy over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
