Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Tamarindo EDP
This one's a divisive trip to the tropics. Some find it a luxurious, grown-up pineapple fantasy, whilst others are left scratching their heads wondering, 'where's the pineapple?' and complaining about a lacklustre drydown. Definitely sample before you commit.
Statement
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

Tamarindo

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its prominent fruity and sweet accords, coupled with a performance that often leans bright and projecting, makes it less suited for a formal office. It truly shines in casual and date settings, especially in warmer weather, where its tropical vibe can be fully appreciated.

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.
