AmberWhy it might work
- Light over deepZante brings citrus and aromatic; New York Intense brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, amber, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put New York Intense in fall and winter and Zante in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: New York Intense is long lasting and moderate, Zante moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointNew York Intense first, then Zante over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
