Why it might work
  • 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.
