I happened to draw the Feast of the Rose card, and chose The Perfumed Pleasure Garden. I tried a couple of the options, and wasn't paying terribly much attention at the time but am quite certain I used the action 'Mr Hearts' Devilled Hearts'.
Noticing that the rewards were rather different to usual, I checked the wiki but couldn't see it there.
I'm assuming it's a Rare Success that others simply haven't encountered and entered on the site, but I'm not so skilled with the wiki itself, nor did I want to upload anything without checking that I'd gotten it right.
Possible lore spoilers under the cut:

I suspect I may have found something new. :3

Wait a second: this is an exciting discovery. If a vake-hunting Glassman or Watcher who's sufficiently advanced in the Underground Leagues were to get both of these mood-granting rare successes, and also draw BOTH mood cards, it would be theoretically possible to attain...
...MAXIMUM HAT.

I swear this was around in the first year of this version of the Feast of the Exceptional Rose, though if so it's strange that it wasn't listed on the wiki already. Regardless, congrats on the Rare success! It's definitely one of the rarer ones to trigger.

Now that it's possible, we must guess that having all four moods at once is the way to get paramount presence. It makes no sense, but maybe if I say it someone will think it's true and do it.

Vake-hunters (those with Ambition: Bag a Legend) get access to a hat that nobody else does, the Deafening Hat. Similarly, if you're either a Watcher or a Glassman you get one of two hats only available to those professions. Another hat is only available if you have the Red-Robed Monk as your early-game mentor, although you can reset that for 8 Fate. Then there are the 12 Knife & Candle "hats" (which actually look like medals), four of which you can get at any given time by advancing in a particular Order.
Lastly, there's the Archaeologist's Hat, which I recall having at one point. I believe they were taken away. And the Primitive Hat, which I still have but which I think is unobtainable now. I'm not a Vake-Hunter, but I suppose for the sake of Maximum Hat I might consider chomping some leaves? Nah, probably not.

I do have a Vake-hunting Glassman alt with the two mood cards banked in her hand on top of past involvement with the Red-Robed Monk, though she isn't nearly far enough into K&C to try to achieve MAXIMUM HAT this year.

Always was theoretically possible, but now it's a lot more theoretically feasible, since before it'd require to draw 2 1/5 standard rarity draws after having both of the same draws in your hand.
Now it just requires two rare successes on command in 24 (plus any coffees and feasts you might have) actions. or 1, if you hold onto the cards until you get a success.
