The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Escada S, blue is Hindu Kush. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Flowers over greenEscada S brings floral; Hindu Kush brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and powdery run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Escada S is moderate on both, Hindu Kush long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointHindu Kush first, then Escada S over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
