Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Jimmy Choo EDP
A modern, ultra-feminine gourmand chypre that balances juicy fruit with decadent caramel and patchouli. Jimmy Choo EDP is a statement scent for those who love sweetness with a seductive, polished edge.
Acquired
Our Verdict - DKNY Be Tempted EDP
This one's a proper "love-it-or-hate-it" affair. Some reckon Be Tempted is a hidden gem with a truly unique red berry and licorice twist, while others find it a synthetic, syrupy headache waiting to happen. You'll either adore its seductive depth or be utterly put off by its sweetness.

Season and Occasion Fit

Jimmy Choo

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn
Also Works:
Winter

The syrupy pear, caramel, and toffee sweetness wear best in the cool and transitional months, while the patchouli and orchid offer depth for autumn and winter. Its richness can feel cloying in high summer heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Jimmy Choo EDP projects confidence and sensuality, making it ideal for dates and evening events. It is a bit too bold and sweet for sport and can overwhelm in conservative office settings.

DKNY Be Tempted

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Summer

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its initial strength, sweetness, and depth make it less suitable for the office or sport. However, the sensual and mysteriously sweet accords, combined with community sentiment about feeling 'sexy' and 'sassy', mark it out as a top choice for date nights and evening wear.
