Agarwood (Oud)Why it might work
- Light over deepApex Parfum brings aromatic and citrus; Ardent brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list jasmine, labdanum, patchouli and musk and 2 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody and amber run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Apex Parfum is long lasting and strong, Ardent long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointArdent first, then Apex Parfum over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
