Why it might work

  • A shared threadAmber, woody and balsamic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Ambergris in spring and summer and Vanilla Extasy in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ambergris is eternal and moderate, Vanilla Extasy long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
