Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenAqua Allegoria Cherry Blossom brings floral; New Journalist brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadFloral, fresh, fruity and green run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Aqua Allegoria Cherry Blossom is very weak and intimate, New Journalist moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
