Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list violet, jasmine, peru balsam and tonka bean and 1 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery runs through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vanilla's Muse is very weak and intimate, Nishiki moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
