Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenLove Hibiscus brings floral; Velvet Steps brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list frankincense and cypriol, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAmber, sweet, woody and fruity run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Velvet Steps in fall and winter and Love Hibiscus in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Velvet Steps is moderate on both, Love Hibiscus long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
