How the pair leans

SandalwoodWhy it might work
- Light over deepZipped Man brings citrus and green; Samba Natural Man brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list citruses, musk and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus and fresh run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Samba Natural Man in summer and Zipped Man in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Samba Natural Man is moderate and intimate, Zipped Man moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSamba Natural Man first, then Zipped Man over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
