How the pair leans

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

Why it might work

Light over deepIllicit Flower brings citrus; Rami brings amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
Notes in commonBoth list benzoin, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
A shared threadFruity and sweet run through both.
Opposite seasonsVoters put Rami in fall and Illicit Flower in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.

A starting pointRami first, then Illicit Flower over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
