How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is San Lorenzo, blue is Mortel. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenSan Lorenzo brings floral; Mortel brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • A shared threadAmber and woody run through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put San Lorenzo in spring and summer and Mortel in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: San Lorenzo is moderate and intimate, Mortel moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
