How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Adagio, blue is Grapefruit. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list oakmoss, vetiver and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadEarthy, woody, mossy and aromatic run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Adagio in fall and winter and Grapefruit in summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
