VanillaWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenCherry Blossom brings floral; Islay brings woody and green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadCitrus, musky and powdery run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Cherry Blossom in spring and summer and Islay in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
What to watch
- One will leadIslay is voted eternal and enormous; Cherry Blossom moderate on both. Expect Islay to lead and Cherry Blossom to fade first.
A starting pointOne spray of Islay, two of Cherry Blossom over it.Weighted toward the one that fades first. Adjust to taste.
