- Flowers over greenL'Iris brings floral; Shades Of Nirvana brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- Notes in commonBoth list jasmine and musk, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
- A shared threadPowdery, white floral, fresh spicy and musky run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: L'Iris is moderate on both, Shades Of Nirvana moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointShades Of Nirvana first, then L'Iris over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
