Yes I know perfume experts won't reccomend this....but I know very well that most of us do it. What is your ultimate best scent combination?. I sometimes tend to apply two or more different frags at the same time....and the most compliments I ever got in one night,I got from doing this. I applied chrome legend together with Burberry weekend and Lanvin l'homme sport....and result was breathtaking. people kept asking what I was wearing. what's yours by the way?

chrome legend + Burberry weekend + Lanvin L'homme sport = compliments.

Definitely no expert here, but the truth is I never have done it in almost 40 years and don't envision myself doing it, but I respect those who are so inclined.

No specific fragrances. Anything that combines woods and sweets is gold to my nose (yes I know, gold does not have a scent).
Perfect scent breakdown (not notes, just types) would be: 65% woods, 35% sweet, 10 spices

i have recently tried (at the professional advice of one of annick goutal's shop managers) layering at a ration of 2:1 sables and eau du fier. the result is breathtaking. also, it works either way, and both result in a completely different perfume, both amazing.

I expect the perfumers who made any of these would be flinching at this thread.... lol

I occasionally spray my tinctures of real ambergris on under a frag if I want it to last longer.
