The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Le Temps des Lilas, blue is Dolce Violet. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Flowers over greenLe Temps des Lilas brings floral; Dolce Violet brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral, fresh, green and soft spicy run through both.
A starting pointDolce Violet first, then Le Temps des Lilas over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
