- Light over deepRose Royale brings citrus; L'Air du Temps brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose, bergamot, jasmine and iris, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFloral runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L'Air du Temps is moderate and enormous, Rose Royale moderate and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL'Air du Temps first, then Rose Royale over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
