Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

What to watch

An unusual mixAnimalic and citrus are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
Two loud onesBoth are voted strong projectors (Ambre: eternal and enormous; Duzina Rozi: long lasting and strong). Go light on both.

A starting pointDuzina Rozi first, then Ambre over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
