How the pair leans

CedarWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenFleur de Patchouli brings floral; Gharaam brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadWoody, fresh and warm spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Fleur de Patchouli is moderate on both, Gharaam moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointFleur de Patchouli first, then Gharaam over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
