How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Viva Viola, blue is (2015). It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work
  • Light over deep(2015) brings citrus; Viva Viola brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and sweet run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Viva Viola is moderate on both, (2015) moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
