- Light over deepRhinoceros brings aromatic; Midnight Black Tea brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Midnight Black Tea is moderate on both, Rhinoceros long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMidnight Black Tea first, then Rhinoceros over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
