The blend
How the pair leans

- Light over deepCologne 352 brings citrus; LXXXV brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadWoody runs through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: LXXXV is moderate on both, Cologne 352 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLXXXV first, then Cologne 352 over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
