- Flowers over greenPure White Linen Limited Edition brings floral; Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadWoody, rose, sweet and warm spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Pure White Linen Limited Edition in summer and spring and Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Pure White Linen Limited Edition is moderate on both, Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum long lasting and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmber Ylang Ylang Parfum first, then Pure White Linen Limited Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
