How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Magnolios, blue is GRAND CUVÉE. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work
  • Light over deepMagnolios brings green; GRAND CUVÉE brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Magnolios in spring and fall and GRAND CUVÉE in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.

What to watch
  • An unusual mixGreen and amber are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
  • One will leadMagnolios is voted very weak and moderate; GRAND CUVÉE moderate on both. Expect Magnolios to lead and GRAND CUVÉE to fade first.
