Why it might work
  • Light over deepElle Perfume Extract brings citrus; London brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • Notes in commonBoth list birch and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWarm spicy, amber, woody and leather run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: London is moderate on both, Elle Perfume Extract very weak and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointElle Perfume Extract first, then London over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
