PatchouliWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenRalph Lauren Blue brings floral; Shadow II pour Homme brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list orange blossom, musk, vetiver and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWhite floral, citrus and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ralph Lauren Blue is moderate on both, Shadow II pour Homme moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointShadow II pour Homme first, then Ralph Lauren Blue over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
