- Light over deepColonia Futura brings citrus and aromatic; Cedar in Flower brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, earthy and citrus run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Cedar in Flower in fall and winter and Colonia Futura in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cedar in Flower is moderate on both, Colonia Futura moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCedar in Flower first, then Colonia Futura over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
