Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenPleats Please brings floral; La Yuqawam Femme brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWoody, musky and powdery run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Pleats Please in spring and La Yuqawam Femme in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Pleats Please is moderate on both, La Yuqawam Femme long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
