MuskWhy it might work
- Sweet meets spiceBois Noir brings amber; Ocean Blue brings vanilla. Spice cuts sweetness and sweetness rounds spice.
- Notes in commonBoth list resins, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, balsamic and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ocean Blue is moderate on both, Bois Noir long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBois Noir first, then Ocean Blue over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
