OakmossWhy it might work
- Light over deepLove & Crime brings citrus; Lauren brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadSoft spicy, floral and warm spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Love & Crime is long lasting and moderate, Lauren moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
- An unusual mixVanilla and green are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
A starting pointLove & Crime first, then Lauren over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
