- Flowers over greenAllende brings floral; Alexandria II Extrait Oil brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadVanilla, warm spicy and powdery run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Allende is long lasting and moderate, Alexandria II Extrait Oil eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAllende first, then Alexandria II Extrait Oil over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
