- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, jasmine, amber and patchouli and 1 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFloral, citrus, woody and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 24 Faubourg is long lasting and strong, Bel Ami long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBel Ami first, then 24 Faubourg over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
