Woody NotesWhy it might work
- Light over deepBonbon Spring Summer brings citrus; Mandarin Neroli brings amber and woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus, white floral and woody run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bonbon Spring Summer is moderate and enormous, Mandarin Neroli moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMandarin Neroli first, then Bonbon Spring Summer over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
