The blend

How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is 28°, blue is Noir. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work

Light over deep28° brings citrus; Noir brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
Opposite seasonsVoters put 28° in summer and spring and Noir in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 28° is moderate on both, Noir moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointNoir first, then 28° over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
