Why it might work

Light over deepRichwood brings citrus; Uomo brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
A shared threadWoody, citrus, warm spicy and vanilla run through both.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Richwood is long lasting and strong, Uomo long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointUomo first, then Richwood over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
