Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadMusky, powdery, floral and woody run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Dolceacqua in fall and Samia in winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Dolceacqua is moderate on both, Samia moderate and strong, so neither should bury the other.
