Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, citrus, warm spicy and fresh spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put YMC in fall and winter and Citron Citron in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: YMC is moderate on both, Citron Citron moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
