Star AniseWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenRue Paradis brings floral; Ajwa brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list mimosa and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, woody, yellow floral and floral run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Ajwa in summer and Rue Paradis in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
What to watch
- One will leadAjwa is voted eternal and enormous; Rue Paradis moderate on both. Expect Ajwa to lead and Rue Paradis to fade first.
A starting pointOne spray of Ajwa, two of Rue Paradis over it.Weighted toward the one that fades first. Adjust to taste.
