The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Single Man, blue is Reception. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepReception brings aromatic; Single Man brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, fresh spicy, warm spicy and aromatic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Single Man is moderate on both, Reception long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointReception first, then Single Man over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
