- Flowers over greenIle d'Amour brings floral; Musc – Pure Essence brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list rose, jasmine, musk and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWhite floral, rose and musky run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Ile d'Amour in summer and spring and Musc – Pure Essence in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ile d'Amour is long lasting and moderate, Musc – Pure Essence eternal and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMusc – Pure Essence first, then Ile d'Amour over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
