AmberWhy it might work
- Light over deepSafa brings aromatic and citrus; Fantastic Oud brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and rose run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Fantastic Oud in fall and winter and Safa in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Fantastic Oud is long lasting and strong, Safa long lasting and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFantastic Oud first, then Safa over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
