- A shared threadCitrus, amber and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Mesh Metal in summer and spring and Patchouli Sauvage in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Mesh Metal is moderate on both, Patchouli Sauvage long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPatchouli Sauvage first, then Mesh Metal over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
