- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Chanson Noire is eternal and moderate, Rouge Hermes Eau Delicate long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointChanson Noire first, then Rouge Hermes Eau Delicate over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
