Aromatic, herbal and green meets aromatic, woody and green. They share three accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is White Tea & Sage, blue is Balafre. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepWhite Tea & Sage brings aromatic and green; Balafre brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, herbal and green run through both.
A starting pointBalafre first, then White Tea & Sage over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
