- A shared threadPowdery, aromatic and iris run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Shalimar Legere is long lasting and moderate, 003 Cotton Kiss weak and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point003 Cotton Kiss first, then Shalimar Legere over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
