- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, woody and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for winter.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Note Poudree is eternal and enormous, Cuir de Russie moderate and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointNote Poudree first, then Cuir de Russie over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
