Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list mandarin orange, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadCitrus and floral run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Samba is moderate on both, Verveine et Fleurs moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
