- A shared threadAromatic and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: La Fumee Arabie is moderate on both, Vetiver Bourbon eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLa Fumee Arabie first, then Vetiver Bourbon over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
