- Flowers over greenPleats Please in Bloom brings floral; Poets of Berlin brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFruity and sweet run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Pleats Please in Bloom is very weak and moderate, Poets of Berlin moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPoets of Berlin first, then Pleats Please in Bloom over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
