Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list patchouli and cedar, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, aromatic and patchouli run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Ambre in fall and winter and Madrigal in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ambre is moderate on both, Madrigal moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
