RoseWhy it might work
- Light over deepDesire for a Woman brings citrus; Capriccio brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk, amber and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, white floral, powdery and sweet run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Capriccio in spring and Desire for a Woman in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Capriccio is eternal and enormous, Desire for a Woman moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCapriccio first, then Desire for a Woman over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
