- Light over deepBrand New brings citrus; Victorian Posy brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, floral and green run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Brand New in summer and Victorian Posy in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Brand New is moderate on both, Victorian Posy moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVictorian Posy first, then Brand New over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
