Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenA Reason To Love brings floral; Ange Noir XXI brings green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadRose, amber, fresh and powdery run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put A Reason To Love in fall and winter and Ange Noir XXI in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: A Reason To Love is long lasting and moderate, Ange Noir XXI eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
