Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenLa Selection Lady brings floral; La Fumee brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody runs through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put La Selection Lady in spring and summer and La Fumee in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: La Selection Lady is long lasting and enormous, La Fumee moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
