- Light over deepBois Rouge brings aromatic; Olympea Absolu brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list jasmine and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, white floral, powdery and animalic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Olympea Absolu is moderate on both, Bois Rouge long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOlympea Absolu first, then Bois Rouge over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
