Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenFig & Lotus Flower brings floral; Cologne brings green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadGreen runs through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Cologne is moderate on both, Fig & Lotus Flower moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
