CedarWhy it might work
- Light over deepAqua Lemon Cologne brings citrus, green and aromatic; Michael Jordan brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, fresh spicy and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Michael Jordan is moderate on both, Aqua Lemon Cologne weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMichael Jordan first, then Aqua Lemon Cologne over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
