Citrus, sweet and fruity meets woody, citrus and floral. 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 Carlisle, blue is Vision. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

CedarWhy it might work
- Light over deepCarlisle brings citrus; Vision brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- A shared threadCitrus and amber run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Carlisle in winter and fall and Vision in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Carlisle is moderate on both, Vision moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOne spray of each, on different spots.Neither is clearly deeper or stronger, so start even. Adjust to taste.
