- Light over deepBlush brings citrus; L'Heure Exquise brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFloral and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Blush in spring and L'Heure Exquise in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Blush is moderate on both, L'Heure Exquise long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL'Heure Exquise first, then Blush over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
