- Light over deep8 88 brings aromatic; 51 Pour Homme brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list geranium, saffron and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, leather, warm spicy and amber run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 51 Pour Homme is eternal and enormous, 8 88 long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point51 Pour Homme first, then 8 88 over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
