- Light over deepSecret Intention brings aromatic; Oud for Love brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list coriander and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, woody and powdery run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Oud for Love in winter and fall and Secret Intention in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Oud for Love is long lasting and strong, Secret Intention long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOud for Love first, then Secret Intention over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
