- Flowers over greenLotus Rising brings floral; Gentle brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk and iris, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFloral, musky and powdery run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lotus Rising is moderate on both, Gentle moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLotus Rising first, then Gentle over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
