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. Maison Margiela

    The oud in Layton Exclusif turns softer under Replica Bubble Bath's rose, tied by shared lavender.

    Spray Layton Exclusif first (2 sprays, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Replica Bubble Bath on top (4 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).

  2. Parfums de Marly

    Percival

    89/100

    Layton Exclusif's oud gives Percival's bergamot something to rest on, and both carry lavender.

    Spray Layton Exclusif first (2 sprays, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Percival on top (4 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).

  3. Tom Ford

    Noir

    88/100

    Noir's vanilla turns Layton Exclusif's lavender warm and soft, and both carry cardamom.

    Spray Layton Exclusif first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Noir on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
