- Flowers over greenOrson brings floral; Duran Duran NeoRio brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list tonka bean, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadAmber, sweet, woody and balsamic run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Orson is moderate on both, Duran Duran NeoRio long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointDuran Duran NeoRio first, then Orson over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
