Woody NotesWhy it might work
- Light over deepPatchouli Intense brings aromatic; Haute Voltige brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadFresh spicy, aromatic and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Patchouli Intense is eternal and strong, Haute Voltige long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPatchouli Intense first, then Haute Voltige over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
