LeatherWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceBayswater brings amber; Vanille Fatale brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list coriander and rose, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, amber, woody and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vanille Fatale is long lasting and moderate, Bayswater eternal and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVanille Fatale first, then Bayswater over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
