- Light over deepRose Arabia Ginger brings citrus; Gold II brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadAromatic, citrus, powdery and white floral run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Gold II in winter and fall and Rose Arabia Ginger in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Gold II is long lasting and strong, Rose Arabia Ginger long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointGold II first, then Rose Arabia Ginger over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
