- Light over deepSafina brings green; Aoud Lagoon brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, earthy, citrus and mossy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Aoud Lagoon is long lasting and strong, Safina long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAoud Lagoon first, then Safina over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
