CedarWhy it might work
- Light over deepKL Homme brings citrus; Oudrising brings woody, smoky and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, rose, jasmine and patchouli and 4 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, amber, citrus and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: KL Homme is long lasting and strong, Oudrising long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOudrising first, then KL Homme over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
