Tonka BeanWhy it might work
- Light over deepAramis Black brings aromatic; Aesthete brings smoky and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list incense and leather, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadLeather, smoky, woody and warm spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Aesthete is long lasting and moderate, Aramis Black moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAesthete first, then Aramis Black over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
