Woody NotesWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenEternity Aqua for Women brings floral; Shiseido MG 5 brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral, fresh and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Eternity Aqua for Women in summer and Shiseido MG 5 in winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Eternity Aqua for Women is moderate on both, Shiseido MG 5 very weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointShiseido MG 5 first, then Eternity Aqua for Women over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
