Why it might work
  • Light over deepBasso brings aromatic and citrus; Notturno brings woody and smoky. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.

  • A shared threadWarm spicy, woody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Notturno in fall and winter and Basso in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Notturno is eternal and moderate, Basso long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointNotturno first, then Basso over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
