Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic, vanilla and sweet run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put 222 in fall and Cologne Blanche in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: 222 is long lasting and moderate, Cologne Blanche moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
