Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenMusk Mantra brings floral; Oud Bourbon brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, white floral, musky and floral run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Oud Bourbon is long lasting and strong, Musk Mantra moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
