- Light over deepAqua Allegoria Gentiana brings citrus; Leonis I brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadFresh spicy, aromatic and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Aqua Allegoria Gentiana in spring and summer and Leonis I in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Aqua Allegoria Gentiana is moderate on both, Leonis I moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLeonis I first, then Aqua Allegoria Gentiana over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
