Why it might work
  • Light over deepD brings aromatic; Elle 25 brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list musk, virginia cedar and oak moss, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFloral, woody and powdery run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Elle 25 is very weak and enormous, D moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointElle 25 first, then D over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
