- Light over deepRed Roses brings citrus; Desert Sermons brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Red Roses in spring and Desert Sermons in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Red Roses is moderate on both, Desert Sermons moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointDesert Sermons first, then Red Roses over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
