AmbergrisWhy it might work
- Light over deepOriginal Vetiver brings citrus and aromatic; Bois des Sables brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, earthy, powdery and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Bois des Sables in fall and winter and Original Vetiver in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bois des Sables is moderate on both, Original Vetiver moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBois des Sables first, then Original Vetiver over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
