Why it might work

  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot, jasmine, amber and patchouli and 1 more, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAromatic, fresh spicy, woody and citrus run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Donna in fall and 1976 in spring and summer. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Donna is long lasting and strong, 1976 moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
