- Light over deepMystery For Him brings aromatic and citrus; Idole brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and citrus run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Idole in fall and winter and Mystery For Him in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Idole is moderate on both, Mystery For Him moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointIdole first, then Mystery For Him over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
