Everyone has a favourite accent that makes them melt when they hear it, whether it's from a county in Ireland or a country half-way across the world. A recent survey by Happn asked participants to vote for the accent they consider most romantic. Italian came out on top with 25% of the votes, while French came second. Ireland however, came third with 19% of people voting Irish as the sexiest accent. Here is a full list of the sexiest accents in the world according to the Happn poll.

1. Italian           25%

  We're not surprised by the results, Ireland has long been associated with the attractive accents, and considering the diversity of accents across all counties, there is something for everyone. In a recent survey by Maximum media, we asked reader what their favourite Irish accent was and Donegal came first followed by Dublin and then Cork.
