- A shared threadPowdery, musky and aromatic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Carrot Blossom & Fennel is moderate on both, I Don t Know What long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointI Don t Know What first, then Carrot Blossom & Fennel over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
