Woody NotesWhy it might work
- Light over deepL'eau du Caporal brings aromatic; Numero Uno brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list vetiver and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAromatic, woody, citrus and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put L'eau du Caporal in summer and Numero Uno in spring and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L'eau du Caporal is moderate on both, Numero Uno long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointNumero Uno first, then L'eau du Caporal over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
