Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenHarrods H Mamba brings floral; Black Gemstone brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadAmber runs through both.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Harrods H Mamba is long lasting and enormous, Black Gemstone long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
