i like the play if your 3bet will get EMP to fold. if hes going to call the 2 cold back to him then its a bad play. if the pfr is the type of player to isolate loose limpers then your play has much more merit, but if his raise is legitimate then your 3bet accomplishes nothing if the early limper is coming along for the ride. you said that you can take the pot down on the flop with 1 bet, which really makes 3betting seem like a strong play. therefore, if the ep limper will fold for the 2 bets i like it alot.
