Contrast pairing
Iris Splash × Marc Jacobs Splash Cotton
Iris, powdery and violet meets powdery, woody and citrus. They share two accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Iris Splash, blue is Marc Jacobs Splash Cotton. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- A shared threadPowdery and woody run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Iris Splash is very weak and strong, Marc Jacobs Splash Cotton weak and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
