- Light over deepVictorian Posy brings green; Amber Spices brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose, amber and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, floral, aromatic and rose run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Victorian Posy in spring and Amber Spices in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Victorian Posy is moderate on both, Amber Spices long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmber Spices first, then Victorian Posy over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
