Agarwood (Oud)Why it might work
- Flowers over greenWarda Al Oud brings floral; Malesia brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list amber, vanilla and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, oud, powdery and musky run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Malesia is eternal and strong, Warda Al Oud eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMalesia first, then Warda Al Oud over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
