- Flowers over greenLa Selection Lady brings floral; Velvet Musk brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadSweet and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put La Selection Lady in spring and summer and Velvet Musk in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: La Selection Lady is long lasting and enormous, Velvet Musk long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointVelvet Musk first, then La Selection Lady over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
