Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenSummer by brings floral; Terra Nova brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and violet, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, floral, citrus and woody run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Summer by is moderate on both, Terra Nova moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
