Contrast pairing

Citrus, warm spicy and cacao meets aromatic, green and warm spicy. They share three accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Arabian Nights, blue is Monsieur 2. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Fresh on freshArabian Nights brings citrus; Monsieur 2 brings aromatic and green. Two fresh profiles stack into something brighter than either.
- A shared threadWarm spicy, fresh spicy and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Arabian Nights in summer and Monsieur 2 in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Arabian Nights is very weak and moderate, Monsieur 2 moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMonsieur 2 first, then Arabian Nights over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
