Woody, earthy and patchouli meets green, aromatic and fresh. They share two accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Bois d'Ebene, blue is Week End. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepWeek End brings green and aromatic; Bois d'Ebene brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Bois d'Ebene in fall and winter and Week End in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bois d'Ebene is long lasting and moderate, Week End weak and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBois d'Ebene first, then Week End over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
