Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenRetrospect brings floral; Miss brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, violet and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, musky, floral and fruity run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Miss is moderate on both, Retrospect moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
