- Light over deepElle Perfume Extract brings citrus; 40 Million Year Old Amber brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, warm spicy, balsamic and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 40 Million Year Old Amber is very weak and moderate, Elle Perfume Extract very weak and enormous, 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.
