- Sweet meets spiceApple Brandy brings amber; Crystal Rose brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, musky, powdery and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Crystal Rose is long lasting and strong, Apple Brandy moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCrystal Rose first, then Apple Brandy over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
