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. Armaf

    Club de Nuit Urban Man Elixir's pink pepper adds a spark to the amber in Grand Soir, and both carry labdanum.

    Spray Grand Soir first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Club de Nuit Urban Man Elixir on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  2. Dossier

    Grand Soir's vanilla sweetens the tobacco in Fougere Oud, tied by shared labdanum.

    Spray Grand Soir first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Fougere Oud on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  3. Ralph Lauren

    Polo Red

    83/100

    Grand Soir's vanilla sweetens the coffee in Polo Red like a cafe drink, and both carry amber.

    Spray Grand Soir first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Polo Red on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
