White MuskWhy it might work
- A shared threadFresh, white floral and green run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put DKNY Be Extra Delicious in summer and spring and Le Bolshoi Black Swan in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: DKNY Be Extra Delicious is moderate on both, Le Bolshoi Black Swan moderate and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOne spray of each, on different spots.Neither is clearly deeper or stronger, so start even. Adjust to taste.
