- Flowers over greenStars Edition 2015 brings floral; Frangipane brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral runs through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Stars Edition 2015 is moderate on both, Frangipane long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointStars Edition 2015 first, then Frangipane over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
