Why it might work

Light over deepVétiver brings aromatic and citrus; Nuit Azur brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.

Opposite seasonsVoters put Vétiver in fall and Nuit Azur in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Vétiver is moderate on both, Nuit Azur moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
