LabdanumWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenEau Claire des Merveilles brings floral; Ambré brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, amber, vanilla and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Eau Claire des Merveilles is moderate on both, Ambré moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmbré first, then Eau Claire des Merveilles over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
