- Light over deepVery Sexy Dare brings citrus; Alpona brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, jasmine, musk and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, fresh spicy, powdery and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Very Sexy Dare is moderate on both, Alpona long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVery Sexy Dare first, then Alpona over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
