The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Quercus, blue is Pomegranate Splash. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepQuercus brings citrus and aromatic; Pomegranate Splash brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, mandarin orange, musk and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic, green and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Quercus is moderate on both, Pomegranate Splash weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPomegranate Splash first, then Quercus over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
