- Light over deepKobe brings citrus; L’Homme Aux Gants brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list benzoin, tonka bean, agarwood (oud) and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, fresh spicy, sweet and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Kobe in spring and summer and L’Homme Aux Gants in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Kobe is long lasting and moderate, L’Homme Aux Gants moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointL’Homme Aux Gants first, then Kobe over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
