- Flowers over greenD G Feminine brings floral; Governors Island brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadPowdery, musky and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put D G Feminine in spring and Governors Island in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: D G Feminine is moderate on both, Governors Island moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointGovernors Island first, then D G Feminine over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
