Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFloral and tropical run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Velvet Desire is moderate on both, Love Hibiscus long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
