How the pair leans

PatchouliWhy it might work
- Light over deepLutece brings aromatic; Happy Spirit Forever brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list rosemary, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic, fresh spicy and sweet run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Lutece in winter and Happy Spirit Forever in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lutece is long lasting and moderate, Happy Spirit Forever moderate and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
- An unusual mixVanilla and citrus are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
A starting pointLutece first, then Happy Spirit Forever over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
