Short answer: Dior Fahrenheit layers best with partners that share its sandalwood, amber and vetiver and add one new direction. Combos people actually wear include Tom Ford Oud Wood, Tom Ford Ombré Leather and Davidoff Cool Water. Skip very sweet candy gourmands and loud aquatics that fight the dry woods.
Dior Fahrenheit layers best when one fragrance leads and the other has a clear supporting job: brightness, softness, texture, or depth. Start on clean, moisturized skin and let the first layer settle for 20–30 seconds before the second.
