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. Lattafa

    Hero Eau de Parfum's cedarwood gives Khamrah Dukhan's tonka bean a dry, woody edge, tied by shared benzoin.

    Spray Khamrah Dukhan first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Hero Eau de Parfum on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  2. Al Haramain

    The vanilla in Amber Oud Tobacco Edition turns less sugary next to Hero Eau de Parfum's dry cedarwood, tied by shared incense.

    Spray Amber Oud Tobacco Edition first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Hero Eau de Parfum on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  3. Dior

    Dior Homme Sport puts bright bergamot over the cedarwood in Hero Eau de Parfum, and both carry incense.

    Spray Hero Eau de Parfum first (2 sprays, chest and neck), let it settle a minute, then Dior Homme Sport on top (3 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).
