CedarWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceBeat Cafe brings amber; Mon Boudoir brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list benzoin and vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, woody, warm spicy and sweet run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Mon Boudoir is long lasting and moderate, Beat Cafe moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMon Boudoir first, then Beat Cafe over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
