Why it might work
  • Light over deepEau Sauvage Cologne brings citrus, aromatic and green; Genesis brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Genesis in fall and winter and Eau Sauvage Cologne in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Genesis is long lasting and moderate, Eau Sauvage Cologne moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
