- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, woody, aromatic and sweet run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Queen of The Night is long lasting and moderate, Carnation eternal and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointQueen of The Night first, then Carnation over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
