The blend
How the pair leans

VanillaWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenLionora brings floral; Chanel No 5 L'Eau Red Edition brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadSweet, powdery, fresh and vanilla run through both.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lionora is long lasting and moderate, Chanel No 5 L'Eau Red Edition moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointLionora first, then Chanel No 5 L'Eau Red Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
