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. Montblanc

    Man Eau Fraîche puts bright lemon over the mahogany wood in Legend Red, tied by shared clary sage.

    Spray Legend Red first (2 sprays, chest and neck), let it settle a minute, then Man Eau Fraîche on top (3 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).

  2. Initio

    Paragon

    82/100

    Man Eau Fraîche's lemon lifts the sandalwood in Paragon, which also brings black pepper.

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

  3. Diptyque

    Tempo

    81/100

    Tempo's patchouli gives Man Eau Fraîche's lemon something to rest on, with clary sage in both.

    Spray Tempo first (2 sprays, chest and neck), let it settle a minute, then Man Eau Fraîche on top (3 sprays, neck, wrists and a mist on your shirt).
