- Light over deepMaddy brings citrus; Oud Shamash brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanille, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadSweet runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Maddy is long lasting and strong, Oud Shamash long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOud Shamash first, then Maddy over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
