- A shared threadWoody and floral run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for summer.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Magnetic is weak and moderate, Lotus Blossom & Water Lily moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointMagnetic first, then Lotus Blossom & Water Lily over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
