Contrast pairing
Lances × Avant Garde
Woody, lavender and nutty meets amber, citrus and warm spicy. They share no accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Lances, blue is Avant Garde. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- Light over deepAvant Garde brings citrus; Lances brings woody. Lighter over deeper is the usual way to layer.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Lances in summer and Avant Garde in fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
What to watch
- One will leadLances is voted eternal and enormous; Avant Garde very weak and moderate. Expect Lances to lead and Avant Garde to fade first.
A starting pointOne spray of Lances, two of Avant Garde over it.Weighted toward the one that fades first. Adjust to taste.
