Why it might work
  • Light over deepDeep Red brings citrus; Boss Man brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadFruity, woody, fresh spicy and fresh run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Deep Red in winter and fall and Boss Man in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Deep Red is moderate on both, Boss Man moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
