Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - DKNY My NY

This 2014 fruitchouli is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans adoring its beast-mode raspberry and patchouli blend, while detractors find it sickly sweet and dated. It's truly a "my NY" experience- divisive, just like the city itself.

Statement

Our Verdict - Accento

Sospiro Accento is a divisive one. Many find it beastly, fruity, and fresh, almost identical to Chanel Chance at times. Others decry its high price for what they consider a synthetic, unoriginal scent that veers into masculine territory.

Season and Occasion Fit

DKNY My NY

Seasons

Best For:

Autumn

Also Works:

Spring

Built for the cooler edges of the year - autumn and spring pair best.

Occasions

Best For:

Date

Also Works:

Casual

Given its 'beast mode' performance and strong sillage, this fragrance is best suited for evenings and social gatherings, where its bold character can shine without overwhelming those around you. While some find it office-appropriate, its intensity makes it a risky choice for close-quarter professional environments. The sweet, fruity, and musky accords lean towards playful and alluring scenarios rather than formal or athletic ones.

Accento

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer

Also Works:

Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its strong projection and longevity make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for dates and evening events where it can make a statement. The fruity-fresh and musky accords lend themselves well to both casual and formal settings, particularly in warmer weather.
