MuskWhy it might work
- Light over deepVents et Marées brings citrus; Esprit De Noel brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic, sweet and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Vents et Marées in summer and Esprit De Noel in winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vents et Marées is moderate on both, Esprit De Noel moderate and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEsprit De Noel first, then Vents et Marées over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
