Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenSucculent Flower brings floral; Suede Orris brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWoody, citrus and powdery run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Suede Orris in spring and fall and Succulent Flower in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Suede Orris is weak and intimate, Succulent Flower moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
