- Light over deepMichael Sheer brings aromatic; Midnight Shimmer brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list jasmine and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, powdery and floral run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Michael Sheer in spring and summer and Midnight Shimmer in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Michael Sheer is moderate and strong, Midnight Shimmer moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMidnight Shimmer first, then Michael Sheer over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
