The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Kyoto, blue is 1978 Les Bains Douches. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepKyoto brings aromatic; 1978 Les Bains Douches brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, fresh spicy, aromatic and white floral run through both.
A starting point1978 Les Bains Douches first, then Kyoto over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
