  • Notes in commonBoth list agarwood (oud), amber and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, oud, amber and musky run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Woody in fall and winter and Al Maqam in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
