Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenMemory Motel brings floral; Nio brings green and woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list bergamot and patchouli, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWarm spicy, floral and earthy run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Memory Motel in fall and Nio in summer and spring. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Memory Motel is long lasting and moderate, Nio long lasting and moderate, so neither should bury the other.
Suggested from the two fragrances' accords, notes and votes. Not yet tested by wearers.
A starting pointMemory Motel first, then Nio over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
