Why it might work

  • A shared threadCitrus, woody and warm spicy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Citron Citron in summer and Ithaka in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Citron Citron is moderate on both, Ithaka long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
