LabdanumWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceBestia Sacra brings amber; Cornubia brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, citrus, amber and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cornubia is long lasting and strong, Bestia Sacra long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBestia Sacra first, then Cornubia over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
