VanillaWhy it might work
- Light over deepPolo Red Racing Edition brings citrus and aromatic; Byzance brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, vanilla and soft spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Byzance is moderate on both, Polo Red Racing Edition moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointByzance first, then Polo Red Racing Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
