Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenCasta Diva Exceptional Edition brings floral; La French brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list ambergris and white musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadVanilla, sweet, fruity and woody run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Casta Diva Exceptional Edition is moderate on both, La French long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
