- Flowers over greenOpium Fleur Imperiale brings floral; Samsara Eau de Parfum brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, jasmine, vanilla and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, sweet, white floral and citrus run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Samsara Eau de Parfum is moderate on both, Opium Fleur Imperiale long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSamsara Eau de Parfum first, then Opium Fleur Imperiale over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
