Contrast pairing

Leather, fruity and sweet meets fresh spicy, aromatic and vanilla. They share three accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Notes Classics, blue is Barakkat Gentle Gold. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.
