Why it might work

Flowers over greenFlora Bella brings floral; Mandala Oud brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
Opposite seasonsVoters put Flora Bella in spring and Mandala Oud in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.

Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
