- Light over deepNajdia in Gold brings aromatic; Alexandria Imperiale brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody, animalic, aromatic and fresh spicy run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Alexandria Imperiale in winter and Najdia in Gold in spring and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Alexandria Imperiale is eternal and enormous, Najdia in Gold long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAlexandria Imperiale first, then Najdia in Gold over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
