- Light over deepMagnolia City brings aromatic and citrus; Petitgrain Sur Fleur brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus and green run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Petitgrain Sur Fleur in summer and Magnolia City in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Petitgrain Sur Fleur is moderate and intimate, Magnolia City moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPetitgrain Sur Fleur first, then Magnolia City over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
