The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Orchid Soleil, blue is Purple Label. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

- A shared threadSweet, soft spicy and woody run through both.
- Opposite seasonsVoters put Orchid Soleil in summer and Purple Label in spring and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Orchid Soleil is long lasting and strong, Purple Label moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointOrchid Soleil first, then Purple Label over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
