- Flowers over greenWild Pears brings floral; Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and sandalwood, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadSweet, warm spicy, powdery and vanilla run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Wild Pears in summer and spring and Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Wild Pears is moderate on both, Amber Ylang Ylang Parfum long lasting and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointAmber Ylang Ylang Parfum first, then Wild Pears over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
