- Light over deepAqua Palma brings citrus; Elle Limited Edition 2011 brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic, fresh spicy and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Aqua Palma is long lasting and moderate, Elle Limited Edition 2011 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAqua Palma first, then Elle Limited Edition 2011 over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
