- Light over deepEau du Désir brings citrus; This Is Really Him! brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic and white floral run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Eau du Désir is moderate on both, This Is Really Him! moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointThis Is Really Him! first, then Eau du Désir over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
