- Light over deepRihanna brings citrus; L’Homme Idéal Sport brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and sweet run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L’Homme Idéal Sport is moderate on both, Rihanna moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointRihanna first, then L’Homme Idéal Sport over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
