Why it might work
  • Light over deepSunsation brings aromatic and citrus; Sur Mesure Noir brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, patchouli and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic, fresh spicy, warm spicy and floral run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Sunsation in summer and Sur Mesure Noir in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sunsation is weak and intimate, Sur Mesure Noir long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
