How the pair leans

Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is DAWN: Let's Begin, blue is The Body Mist. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.

Why it might work

Flowers over greenDAWN: Let's Begin brings floral; The Body Mist brings green. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
