Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenTouch of Sun brings floral; Bois d'Iris brings earthy. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, woody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Bois d'Iris in fall and Touch of Sun in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Bois d'Iris is moderate and intimate, Touch of Sun moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointBois d'Iris first, then Touch of Sun over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
