PatchouliWhy it might work
- Light over deepRose & Cuir brings aromatic; LOULOU Joy brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadFresh spicy and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Rose & Cuir is long lasting and strong, LOULOU Joy long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLOULOU Joy first, then Rose & Cuir over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
