How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Pilgrim, blue is Carolina. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work
  • Light over deepCarolina brings citrus; Pilgrim brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadAmber, aromatic, woody and warm spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Pilgrim in winter and fall and Carolina in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Pilgrim is moderate on both, Carolina moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
