MuskWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceContinuum brings amber; Boss Intense brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, amber and citrus run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for winter.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Boss Intense is long lasting and strong, Continuum long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointContinuum first, then Boss Intense over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
