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. Dolce & Gabbana

    The One for Men Eau de Toilette's tobacco melts into the madagascar vanilla in Erba Gold, tied by shared cardamom.

    Spray Erba Gold first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then The One for Men Eau de Toilette on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).

  2. ALT. Fragrances

    Agar Gold

    85/100

    Agar Gold's oud gives Erba Gold's madagascar vanilla a dry, woody edge, with guatemalan cardamom in both.

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

  3. Azzaro

    Erba Gold's madagascar vanilla turns Azzaro Pour Homme's lavender warm and soft, with cardamom in both.

    Spray Erba Gold first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Azzaro Pour Homme on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
