- Light over deepChypre Silver brings aromatic and green; Encre Noire brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic and earthy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Encre Noire is moderate on both, Chypre Silver long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEncre Noire first, then Chypre Silver over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
