How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Sexy Ruby, blue is Rising Sun. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- A shared threadSweet, woody and musky run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Sexy Ruby in fall and winter and Rising Sun in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sexy Ruby is moderate on both, Rising Sun moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointRising Sun first, then Sexy Ruby over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
