- Light over deepJacinthe de Bois brings green; Royal Ceylan brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadGreen, floral and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Jacinthe de Bois in spring and Royal Ceylan in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Jacinthe de Bois is moderate on both, Royal Ceylan long lasting and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointJacinthe de Bois first, then Royal Ceylan over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
