Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenAsana brings floral; Oud Nihal brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWoody, fresh spicy, warm spicy and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Oud Nihal in fall and Asana in winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
What to watch
  • Two loud onesBoth are voted strong projectors (Oud Nihal: eternal and strong; Asana: long lasting and strong). Go light on both.
A starting pointOud Nihal first, then Asana over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
