- Light over deepAquilaria Blossom brings citrus; Cuir Imperial brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, cedar, tonka bean and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy, aromatic and sweet run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cuir Imperial is long lasting and enormous, Aquilaria Blossom long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCuir Imperial first, then Aquilaria Blossom over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
