AmyrisWhy it might work
- Light over deepAlif brings aromatic; Sweet Amber brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list saffron, rose, cedar and patchouli and 1 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and aromatic run through both.
A starting pointAlif first, then Sweet Amber over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
