- Light over deepIsland Capri brings citrus and aromatic; Pour Homme Absolu brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, citrus, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Island Capri is moderate on both, Pour Homme Absolu long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPour Homme Absolu first, then Island Capri over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
