How the pair leans

- Light over deepCaju & Lime brings citrus, aromatic and green; Rosa Bulgara brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Caju & Lime in summer and Rosa Bulgara in spring and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Caju & Lime is weak and moderate, Rosa Bulgara moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointRosa Bulgara first, then Caju & Lime over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
