Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenFleur du Mal brings floral; Athanor brings woody and earthy. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadPowdery and amber run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Fleur du Mal is moderate on both, Athanor long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
