Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenRose & Magnolia brings floral; Remain brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadFresh spicy, woody, warm spicy and amber run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Rose & Magnolia in spring and Remain in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Rose & Magnolia is moderate on both, Remain long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
