- Flowers over greenSi Intense brings floral; L’Air du Temps Nuit Pourpre brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody and patchouli run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for winter.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L’Air du Temps Nuit Pourpre is weak and enormous, Si Intense long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL’Air du Temps Nuit Pourpre first, then Si Intense over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
