Why it might work
  • Light over deepPetit brings citrus; Chinese Tobacco brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, lemon and vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadCitrus, aromatic, fresh spicy and sweet run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Petit in spring and summer and Chinese Tobacco in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Petit is weak and intimate, Chinese Tobacco moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
