Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenVery brings floral; Silver Shadow Pure Blend brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list orange and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody and citrus run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Very in spring and Silver Shadow Pure Blend in winter and fall. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Very is moderate on both, Silver Shadow Pure Blend long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
