How to make a firm latex mattress soft?

It's a long story... bottom line ended up with 2-piece latex mattress. Bottom piece is from a Land and Sky Heaven and Earth and is 9" in 2 parts firm/medium-firm. Top is 3" sleepwarehouse 16-18 ILD Dunlop by Latex Green. Top is rated as "Med-Soft", and it's too firm for me. Support is ok, just doesn't feel cozy.
Latex has that Analytical feel to it - for lack of a better term, not too cozy really.
I'm thinking about a 2 or 3" Wool topper at this point. Tried a featherbed and didn't care for that really. I'd also be willing to replace the top latex with softer, just hard buying online.
Strange - going by most of the ILD ratings 16-18 ILD should be pretty soft.
I prefer to sink in a bit i guess. I'm 185lbs average build.
Thanks for any ideas.
