- Notes in commonBoth list jasmine and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, powdery and floral run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Benevolence in fall and winter and Bana Banana in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Benevolence is moderate on both, Bana Banana moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
