CedarWhy it might work
- Light over deepSaffron Mandarin brings citrus; Sancti brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list benzoin and labdanum, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, warm spicy, woody and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Saffron Mandarin is moderate on both, Sancti moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSaffron Mandarin first, then Sancti over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
