- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAromatic, fresh spicy, warm spicy and earthy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Gravitas Essentia is long lasting and moderate, Old Money long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOld Money first, then Gravitas Essentia over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
