Citrus, vanilla and fresh spicy meets citrus, amber and woody. They share three accords and no notes.

- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Renata II is moderate on both, Arrakis long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
