How the pair leans

- A shared threadAmber, musky, woody and warm spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Vengeance Extreme in fall and winter and Citizen X in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vengeance Extreme is long lasting and strong, Citizen X long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVengeance Extreme first, then Citizen X over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
