The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Licorice, blue is Gentleman 2017. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- A shared threadSweet runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Licorice is moderate on both, Gentleman 2017 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLicorice first, then Gentleman 2017 over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
