- Light over deepTeck brings aromatic and citrus; Sleek Suede brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, woody, fresh spicy and patchouli run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Sleek Suede is long lasting and strong, Teck moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSleek Suede first, then Teck over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
