That very much depends on what the person with the accent is saying.

It's a "turn-on" when coming from a woman but it's a "turn-off" when coming
from a man. This may be reversed depending on your sex and/or sexual
orientation.

With my next door neighbours, I'm never quite sure what they are saying.
However, that may be because theirs is a regional French accent; Languedoc.

A slight French accent in English can be charming. A thick accent,
particularly one that interferes with comprehension, can be annoying.
So can idiosyncratic errors in pronunciation, grammar, or vocabulary.

Different French speakers manifest their French accents in slightly
different ways. Some types are more aesthetic than others.
