Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenRose Velours brings floral; Feu Secret brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWoody, iris and powdery run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Feu Secret is moderate on both, Rose Velours moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
