The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Wild Elixir, blue is Bois des Iles. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

OpoponaxWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenWild Elixir brings floral; Bois des Iles brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list mandarin orange, lily-of-the-valley, jasmine and amber and 3 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadSweet, powdery, fresh and aromatic run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Wild Elixir in spring and summer and Bois des Iles in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Wild Elixir is moderate and enormous, Bois des Iles moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointBois des Iles first, then Wild Elixir over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
