- Light over deepDe Viris brings aromatic; Monsieur brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, musk and cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: De Viris is long lasting and moderate, Monsieur long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMonsieur first, then De Viris over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
