Contrast pairing
Amber Fragrance Oil × Patchouli Blanc
Amber, animalic and powdery meets patchouli, woody and musky. They share two accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Amber Fragrance Oil, blue is Patchouli Blanc. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.
