- Light over deep212 H2O brings citrus; Rue de la Paix brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, citrus, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Rue de la Paix in fall and 212 H2O in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Rue de la Paix is moderate on both, 212 H2O moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point212 H2O first, then Rue de la Paix over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
