How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Intense Iris, blue is Heavenly Tobacco. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- A shared threadWoody and musky run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Intense Iris in spring and Heavenly Tobacco in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Intense Iris is moderate on both, Heavenly Tobacco long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointHeavenly Tobacco first, then Intense Iris over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
