Why it might work
  • Light over deepColette 19 brings citrus and aromatic; Risque brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and jasmine, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadCitrus, fresh spicy, aromatic and green run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Colette 19 in spring and summer and Risque in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Colette 19 is very weak and enormous, Risque long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointRisque first, then Colette 19 over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
