Is it ok to mix cigars in humidor?

i've seen pictures of humidors with cigars out of their cellophane wrappers laid aginst other brands. does this matter? i have several brands in my humi and they're all out of their wrappers but separated by a divider. i thought this was bad for maintaining their actual flavor as it will blend with other flavors? is this so or not?

I've heard people claim that placing cigars together will "marry" the flavors of said cigars. To me that's a little extreme. I think as long as you keep your Acids, Ambrosias, Javas or any other flavored cigar away from your unflavored sticks you should be good to go.

Most people say it has very little if any effect unless you're storing cigars for several years. I've never experienced any marrying of flavors in my singles. I don't smoke flavored cigars.

I've heard of it happening too but only, as some have pointed out, with years of aging. I'm definitely not sensitive enough yet to recognize the marriage.
