  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, ambroxan and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody, musky, amber and citrus run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for spring.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Shawq is long lasting and moderate, Terra Nova moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
