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.
Maison Crivelli
Oud Maracuja
84/100Ganymede's leather takes on a warm glow from Oud Maracuja's saffron, and both carry akigalawood.
Spray Oud Maracuja first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Ganymede on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
Valentino
Valentino Uomo Intense
84/100Valentino Uomo Intense's iris softens the leather in Ganymede, which also brings akigalawood.
Spray Valentino Uomo Intense first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Ganymede on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
Afnan
9pm Night Out
83/100The leather in Ganymede turns smooth and warm with 9pm Night Out's tonka bean, tied by shared akigalawood.
Spray 9pm Night Out first (1 spray, chest, under your shirt), let it settle a minute, then Ganymede on top (2 sprays, neck and wrists).
