JuniperWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenSplendor brings floral; Note Di Colonia V brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list cedar and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadFresh and fresh spicy run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Splendor is moderate on both, Note Di Colonia V moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointSplendor first, then Note Di Colonia V over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
