The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Pure Citrus, blue is Vetiver Pour Homme. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepPure Citrus brings citrus and aromatic; Vetiver Pour Homme brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Pure Citrus is weak and enormous, Vetiver Pour Homme long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVetiver Pour Homme first, then Pure Citrus over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
