- A shared threadFruity, woody, floral and yellow floral run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Classique Pirate Edition is moderate and enormous, Rauque long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointRauque first, then Classique Pirate Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
