Why it might work

  • A shared threadMarine, aromatic, woody and amber run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Ultima in summer and Samba Sport Man in spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Ultima is long lasting and moderate, Samba Sport Man moderate and intimate, so neither should bury the other.
