Has anyone tried mixing partial bottles of bath and body products?

Out of curiosity, and/or to save shelf space--and with what results? I have:

(Disclaimer: I'm severely hyposmic and synaesthetic, so my perceptions may not reflect common experience.)

One part each of Axe Instinct (leather) bodywash, Axe Anarchy for Her II (orange blossom) bodywash, and Suave Vanilla Floral (actually cinnamon-dominant) shampoo added up to an intense sticky dark oriental in the approximate Tabu/Youth Dew range--so surprisingly good that I regret the discontinuation of all three of the above products.

One part each of White Rain Restoring Violet shampoo and Suave Essentials Lavender Lilac shampoo merged into a sweet, extravagant, and dreamy purple spring floral--surpassing either of its components, which individually I found quite faint and nondescript (and which, again, are now defunct.)

I haven't, and I don't use a lot of scented B&B products, so I'm unlikely to... but this is still really interesting!

Another such experiment: Blade Diablo bodywash (cucumber--not the stock mild aquatic cucumber that gets reflexively paired with melon, but a harsh green cucumber, with significant bitterness from the rind) and Blade Howl bodywash (clean laundry) fused into a bracing masculine emerald-green herbal cleanse.

(Some context: Blade--once again, now extinct--was an Axe wannabe in the 2000's whose product names and packaging bristled with metal badassery that...wrote checks that the fragrances therein lacked the funds to cash. Howl bore the likeness of an Arctic direwolf (which prompted thoughts of wash-and-wearwolves) and Diablo the picture of a glowering ember-red bull, with juice color to match; far from being a snortingly virile rodeo devil-in-bovine-form, Diablo emerged as a peaceable Ferdinand who wanted only to plop down in the garden and munch the cucumbers.)
