- Flowers over greenElephant Sanctuary Edition brings floral; Musk Deer brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list cardamom and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy, floral and powdery run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Musk Deer in fall and winter and Elephant Sanctuary Edition in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Musk Deer is long lasting and moderate, Elephant Sanctuary Edition moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMusk Deer first, then Elephant Sanctuary Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
