Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenWarda Al Oud brings floral; Astaral brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list agarwood (oud) and amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadAmber, oud, rose and powdery run through both.
  • Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Astaral is long lasting and strong, Warda Al Oud eternal and enormous, so neither should bury the other.
