SandalwoodWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenNo. 1 Imperial for women brings floral; X Twist Saffron brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, musky, warm spicy and powdery run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put No. 1 Imperial for women in spring and X Twist Saffron in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: No. 1 Imperial for women is long lasting and moderate, X Twist Saffron eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
