Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenLust in Paradise brings floral; Chanel No 46 brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFloral, rose, musky and powdery run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lust in Paradise is moderate on both, Chanel No 46 eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.

A starting pointChanel No 46 first, then Lust in Paradise over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
