Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenI miss Violet brings floral; Oud Shamash brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list leather, musk and ambergris, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadPowdery, leather and woody run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put I miss Violet in spring and Oud Shamash in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: I miss Violet is long lasting and moderate, Oud Shamash long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
