PatchouliWhy it might work
- Light over deepArt Collection No. 7 Lace brings citrus; Idle Hour brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list cedar and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, oud and fresh spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Idle Hour is weak and moderate, Art Collection No. 7 Lace long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointIdle Hour first, then Art Collection No. 7 Lace over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
