How the pair leans

- Light over deepVetiver brings aromatic; Accord No 3 Woody brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Accord No 3 Woody is moderate on both, Vetiver long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVetiver first, then Accord No 3 Woody over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
