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

- A shared threadWarm spicy, herbal, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Sultan in fall and winter and Y Iced Cologne in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
A starting pointSultan first, then Y Iced Cologne over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
