- Light over deepGinger+Mist brings citrus; Jet Black Reserve brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, fresh spicy, aromatic and fruity run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Jet Black Reserve in fall and winter and Ginger+Mist in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Jet Black Reserve is long lasting and moderate, Ginger+Mist moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointJet Black Reserve first, then Ginger+Mist over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
