LeatherWhy it might work
- Notes in commonBoth list iris, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery and amber run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Kiss My Name in spring and Shalimar L'Essence in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Kiss My Name is long lasting and strong, Shalimar L'Essence long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointShalimar L'Essence first, then Kiss My Name over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
