Contrast pairing

Luna Roja × Squid

Fruity, woody and sweet meets amber, balsamic and aromatic. They share three accords and no notes.

The blend

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Luna Roja, blue is Squid. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

A shared threadWoody, sweet and aromatic run through both.
Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Luna Roja is moderate on both, Squid long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
