Woody NotesWhy it might work
- Flowers over greenViolet Blossom brings floral; Cosmic Woods brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
- A shared threadFloral, amber, fresh and sweet run through both.
- Same seasonBoth are voted best for fall.
- Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Violet Blossom is moderate on both, Cosmic Woods moderate on both, so neither should bury the other.
A starting pointCosmic Woods first, then Violet Blossom over it, one spray each.The deeper one goes on first so the lighter one sits on top. Adjust to taste.
