- A shared threadAmber, fresh spicy and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Patchouli in Rye is long lasting and moderate, Dry Land moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
- An unusual mixVanilla and citrus are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
A starting pointPatchouli in Rye first, then Dry Land over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
