- Light over deepYETI brings aromatic; 5 40 PM in Madagascar brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 5 40 PM in Madagascar is moderate on both, YETI moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point5 40 PM in Madagascar first, then YETI over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
