- A shared threadSmoky, woody and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cuir Ylang is long lasting and strong, Polo Supreme Cashmere moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPolo Supreme Cashmere first, then Cuir Ylang over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
