- Light over deepBlack Lacquer brings aromatic; Glass Oasis brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, aromatic, fresh spicy and amber run through both.
A starting pointBlack Lacquer first, then Glass Oasis over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
