Why it might work
  • Light over deepCologne brings citrus and green; Northern Love brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list jasmine and leather, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFresh spicy runs through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Northern Love in fall and winter and Cologne in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Northern Love is long lasting and moderate, Cologne moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointNorthern Love first, then Cologne over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
