- Flowers over greenWisteria & Lavender Cologne brings floral; Montabaco Cuba brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral, fresh spicy, aromatic and vanilla run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Wisteria & Lavender Cologne is moderate on both, Montabaco Cuba long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointWisteria & Lavender Cologne first, then Montabaco Cuba over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
