- Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadMusky and citrus run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Gunne Sax is moderate on both, New Victorian moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointGunne Sax first, then New Victorian over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
