Try them together

Three pairings

The three highest pair scores among our checked bottles. Each score has a reason. Smell is personal; these rules are a starting point.

  1. Byredo

    Super Cedar's musk sits under Fierce's rosemary and keeps it on the skin longer, with vetiver in both.

    Spray Super Cedar first (3 sprays, neck, chest and wrists), let it settle a minute, then Fierce on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  2. Le Labo

    Another 13 goes on first as a quiet base, and Fierce's rosemary wears longer over it, with flowers in both.

    Spray Another 13 first (3 sprays, neck, chest and wrists), let it settle a minute, then Fierce on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  3. Diptyque

    Fleur de Peau sits close to the skin and helps Fierce's rosemary last longer, with flowers in both.

    Spray Fleur de Peau first (3 sprays, neck, chest and wrists), let it settle a minute, then Fierce on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
