- A shared threadWarm spicy, woody, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Oud Noir Intense is long lasting and moderate, Incenso moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOud Noir Intense first, then Incenso over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
