AmberWhy it might work
- Light over deepDominant brings citrus; Montabaco Ivoire brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list orange, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, fresh spicy, citrus and animalic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Montabaco Ivoire in fall and spring and Dominant in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Montabaco Ivoire is long lasting and moderate, Dominant long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointDominant first, then Montabaco Ivoire over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
