- Light over deepOsmanthus Elixir brings citrus and aromatic; Classique Perdu brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, woody, fruity and green run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Osmanthus Elixir is moderate on both, Classique Perdu moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointClassique Perdu first, then Osmanthus Elixir over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
