- Flowers over greenFirst Pour l'Ete brings floral; Coeur de Sang brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFloral, rose, citrus and amber run through both.
A starting pointCoeur de Sang first, then First Pour l'Ete over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
