- Light over deepNew York Intense brings aromatic and citrus; El Caminante brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, aromatic and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: El Caminante is eternal and intimate, New York Intense long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointEl Caminante first, then New York Intense over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
