The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Vanilla Snow, blue is La Fumee. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Sweet meets spiceLa Fumee brings amber; Vanilla Snow brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- A shared threadPowdery and balsamic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Vanilla Snow in spring and summer and La Fumee in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vanilla Snow is weak and moderate, La Fumee moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLa Fumee first, then Vanilla Snow over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
