- Opposite seasonsVoters put Original Gentleman‘s Cologne in spring and summer and Petroleum in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Original Gentleman‘s Cologne is moderate on both, Petroleum long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPetroleum first, then Original Gentleman‘s Cologne over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
