- Light over deepDeclaration Fraiche brings aromatic; Cuir de brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and earthy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Cuir de in fall and Declaration Fraiche in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cuir de is long lasting and moderate, Declaration Fraiche moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCuir de first, then Declaration Fraiche over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
