- Light over deepJardin de l'Élysée brings citrus; Vetiver brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, fresh spicy, floral and green run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vetiver is long lasting and moderate, Jardin de l'Élysée long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVetiver first, then Jardin de l'Élysée over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
