- Flowers over greenPromenade In The Gardens brings floral; Intense French Riviera brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list vetiver, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadWoody, warm spicy and aromatic run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Intense French Riviera is long lasting and moderate, Promenade In The Gardens moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointPromenade In The Gardens first, then Intense French Riviera over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
