How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Reine de Nuit, blue is Wave. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work

Flowers over greenReine de Nuit brings floral; Wave brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
A shared threadRose, warm spicy, floral and woody run through both.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointReine de Nuit first, then Wave over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
