- Light over deepL'Homme brings citrus and aromatic; Lacrima Eau de Parfum brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic and warm spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Lacrima Eau de Parfum in fall and winter and L'Homme in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lacrima Eau de Parfum is moderate on both, L'Homme moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLacrima Eau de Parfum first, then L'Homme over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
