- Opposite seasonsVoters put The Abandoned Mansion in fall and winter and Verbenas of Provence in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: The Abandoned Mansion is moderate on both, Verbenas of Provence weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
