- A shared threadPowdery, sweet and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Eau de Ciel Eau de Toilette in spring and summer and Vanilla Bourbon in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Eau de Ciel Eau de Toilette is moderate and enormous, Vanilla Bourbon moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVanilla Bourbon first, then Eau de Ciel Eau de Toilette over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
