Which Should You Buy?
SJP NYC is a vibrant, divisive celebrity scent; some adore its jammy strawberry-booze cocktail, others recoil from what they perceive as artificial sweetness and a lack of sophistication. It's a proper love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, so try before you buy.
Don't let the 'Noir' fool you, this is a fun, flirty blast of berries and caramel for those who want to smell yummy without the heaviness. Just be ready to re-spray, as its staying power is famously fleeting.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
Its sweet, fruity, and energetic profile makes it ideal for casual outings and warm weather, with many reviews suggesting a 'summer days out' vibe. The boozy notes and perceived lack of sophistication by some might make it less suitable for formal or office settings.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its sweet and fruity profile makes it great for casual outings and dates, though its poor longevity means frequent reapplication. It's generally too playful and quickly disappearing for formal events or the office, and certainly not built for sport.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Fruity, White Floral, Woody accords and Gardenia, Sandalwood notes
