Contrast pairing
Libre Santal Couture × Custom
Woody, lavender and white floral meets amber, smoky and fresh spicy. They share four accords and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Libre Santal Couture, blue is Custom. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.
