  • Notes in commonBoth list patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadSweet, green and amber run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Van Sea in spring and summer and Society in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Van Sea is long lasting and strong, Society long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
