Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Alibaba is long lasting and moderate, Amphorae 17 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 pointAmphorae 17 first, then Alibaba over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
