- Light over deepNo. XIV Ambre brings citrus; Amber Intrigue brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber and labdanum, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Amber Intrigue is long lasting and strong, No. XIV Ambre moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmber Intrigue first, then No. XIV Ambre over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
