Why it might work
  • Flowers over greenHummingbird brings floral; Sahara Noir brings woody. Flowers over green or wood tends to read natural rather than perfumed.
  • Notes in commonBoth list amber, so the two have a shared base to meet on.
  • A shared threadWoody runs through both.
  • Opposite seasonsVoters put Hummingbird in spring and Sahara Noir in fall and winter. Together they may suit the months in between.
  • Evenly matchedPerformance votes are close: Hummingbird is long lasting and moderate, Sahara Noir long lasting and strong, so neither should bury the other.
