Why it might work
  • Light over deepBaccara brings citrus; Musc brings woody and amber. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
  • A shared threadWoody, powdery, mossy and citrus run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Musc in summer and fall and Baccara in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Musc is moderate on both, Baccara moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
