Why it might work
  • Light over deepYellow Diamond brings citrus; Want brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list neroli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, citrus, floral and sweet run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Want in fall and winter and Yellow Diamond in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Want is moderate on both, Yellow Diamond 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 pointWant first, then Yellow Diamond over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
