Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenShaft of Light brings floral; Watermelons brings green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadWhite floral and aromatic run through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Watermelons is moderate and intimate, Shaft of Light weak and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
