MuskWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceBut Not Today brings amber; Sweet Amber brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- A shared threadMusky runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sweet Amber is moderate on both, But Not Today long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSweet Amber first, then But Not Today over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
