How the pair leans

AmberWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceVII brings amber; Luban brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list cedar and white musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, powdery, amber and oud run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Luban is long lasting and moderate, VII long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLuban first, then VII over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
