PatchouliWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenRalph Lauren Blue brings floral; Zara Zen Garden brings green and woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list tuberose, musk and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWhite floral, fresh, green and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ralph Lauren Blue is moderate on both, Zara Zen Garden moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointZara Zen Garden 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.
