Plastic and aromatic meets aromatic, citrus and fresh spicy. They share one accord and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans

- Fresh on freshL’Homme Cologne Bleue brings citrus; Synthesis brings aromatic. Two fresh profiles stack into something brighter than either.
- A shared threadAromatic runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Synthesis is weak and intimate, L’Homme Cologne Bleue moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSynthesis first, then L’Homme Cologne Bleue over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
