Contrast pairing
Lovely × Begum
Citrus, floral and musky meets woody, rose and powdery. They share two accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Lovely, blue is Begum. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.
