Why it might work

Flowers over greenAlchemy brings floral; Gharaam Oil brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
Notes in commonBoth list jasmine, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
A shared threadWhite floral and woody run through both.
Opposite seasonsVoters put Alchemy in fall and winter and Gharaam Oil in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Alchemy is moderate and intimate, Gharaam Oil weak and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
