Contrast pairing

Santales × Amber

Sandalwood, woody and creamy meets amber, woody and rose. They share two accords and two notes.

The blend

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Santales, blue is Amber. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

A shared threadWoody and amber run through both.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Santales is long lasting and strong, Amber moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointAmber first, then Santales over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
