- Light over deepEau de brings aromatic and citrus; Mystique Shimmer brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, woody, fresh spicy and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Mystique Shimmer is moderate on both, Eau de weak and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMystique Shimmer first, then Eau de over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
