- Fresh on freshIllicit Flower brings citrus; Secret Eau de Toilette brings musky. Two fresh profiles stack into something brighter than either.
- A shared threadMusky, rose, fruity and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Secret Eau de Toilette is moderate on both, Illicit Flower moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSecret Eau de Toilette first, then Illicit Flower over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
