What to Layer With Liquides Imaginaires Tapis Volant: Best Combinations

Short answer: Liquides Imaginaires Tapis Volant layers best with partners that share its saffron, oud and sandalwood and add one new direction. The strongest SCNTMIX picks are Lattafa Qaed Al Fursan, Phlur Vanilla Skin and Al Haramain Junoon Oud. Skip a second dense amber or oud, which makes the mix heavy and flat.

Liquides Imaginaires Tapis Volant 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.
