Why it might work
  • Light over deepTerra Nova brings citrus; Amber Arabesque brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, patchouli and tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, amber, warm spicy and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Amber Arabesque in fall and Terra Nova in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Amber Arabesque is moderate and intimate, Terra Nova moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
