Why it might work
  • Flowers over green212 VIP Rose brings floral; Amber Oud brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWoody, powdery and musky run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Amber Oud in winter and fall and 212 VIP Rose in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Amber Oud is long lasting and strong, 212 VIP Rose moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
