- Notes in commonBoth list musk and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadSweet, warm spicy, aromatic and patchouli run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Rose Épicée is long lasting and intimate, Manhattan long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointManhattan first, then Rose Épicée over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
