- A shared threadWhite floral, woody, aromatic and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Marie Claire is moderate and strong, Habit Rouge Légère long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointHabit Rouge Légère first, then Marie Claire over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
