The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Only, blue is Ultraviolet. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

VanillaWhy it might work
- Light over deepOnly brings green and citrus; Ultraviolet brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadGreen, powdery and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Only is moderate and intimate, Ultraviolet moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
- An unusual mixGreen and amber are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
A starting pointOnly first, then Ultraviolet over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
