- Flowers over greenCasta Diva Exceptional Edition brings floral; Blue Hope brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list vanilla, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadVanilla, white floral 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, Blue Hope long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
What to watch
- An unusual mixVanilla and citrus are often kept apart. Try it on skin before committing.
A starting pointBlue Hope first, then Casta Diva Exceptional Edition over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
