Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list amalfi lemon, musk and virginia cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody runs through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put JF in summer and spring and Malmaison in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: JF is moderate on both, Malmaison moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
