Why it might work
  • Fresh on freshPoivre Impérial brings citrus; Kedu brings aromatic and green. Two fresh profiles stack into something brighter than either.
  • A shared threadFresh spicy and citrus run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Poivre Impérial in fall and winter and Kedu in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Poivre Impérial is long lasting and strong, Kedu moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
