Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadCitrus, woody, white floral and powdery run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Chrome in summer and 1826 in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Chrome is moderate on both, 1826 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
