- Light over deepBombshell Paradise brings citrus; Arethusa brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, fruity, woody and white floral run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bombshell Paradise is moderate on both, Arethusa long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointArethusa first, then Bombshell Paradise over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
