Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenLove in Black brings floral; Nio brings green and woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list virginia cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFloral, woody and warm spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Love in Black in fall and winter and Nio in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Love in Black is long lasting and moderate, Nio long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
