- Light over deepPolo Red Parfum brings citrus and aromatic; La Fumée Alexandrie brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, woody and fresh spicy run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Polo Red Parfum is moderate on both, La Fumée Alexandrie long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLa Fumée Alexandrie first, then Polo Red Parfum over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
