Contrast pairing

Sand, floral and amber meets citrus, vanilla and woody. They share one accord and no notes.
The blend
How the pair leans
Each bar adds the two accord profiles, assuming one spray of each. Gold is Surfing Feelings, blue is Aqua Vitae. It's arithmetic on the data, not a test on skin.
