Why it might work
  • Light over deepMagnolia City brings aromatic and citrus; Radio Bombay brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Radio Bombay in fall and summer and Magnolia City in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Radio Bombay is moderate on both, Magnolia City moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointRadio Bombay 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.
