Why it might work

  • A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Gucci Eau de Parfum II in spring and Baudelaire in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Gucci Eau de Parfum II is moderate on both, Baudelaire long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
