The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Like a Shadow, blue is Arrakis. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepArrakis brings citrus; Like a Shadow brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, musky, citrus and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Like a Shadow is weak and strong, Arrakis long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLike a Shadow first, then Arrakis over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
