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. Parfums de Marly

    Percival

    83/100

    Percival's bergamot lifts the oud in Halfeti, which also brings rose.

    Spray Halfeti 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).

  2. Parfums de Marly

    Galloway

    82/100

    Galloway puts bright lemon over the oud in Halfeti, which also adds leather.

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

  3. Le Labo

    Along with spice, Halfeti's oud grounds the green fig of Thé Matcha 26.

    Spray Halfeti first (2 sprays, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Thé Matcha 26 on top (4 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).
