LeatherWhy it might work
- Flowers over green5th Avenue Style brings floral; RedColorado brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFresh spicy and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put 5th Avenue Style in spring and summer and RedColorado in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 5th Avenue Style is moderate on both, RedColorado long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting point5th Avenue Style first, then RedColorado over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
