Why it might work
  • Light over deepPerseus brings citrus and aromatic; Layton brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and geranium, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadCitrus, woody, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Perseus in summer and spring and Layton in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Perseus is long lasting and moderate, Layton long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
