  • A shared threadGreen, woody and earthy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Lumiere Original in spring and Macassar in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Lumiere Original is moderate on both, Macassar eternal and strong, so neither should bury the other.
