I think basically there is not much difference between the structure AA and A-A. Examples can be found in 想想 想一想;试试,试一试。
让我想想。让我想一想(想一下) :Lets see/ let me think.
让我试试(试一试) let me give it a try

I agree with Daisy!
To give you examples of how different they are, here are two identical sentences except one uses 看看 and the other uses 看一看:
我们打开看看
Let's try to open it
我们打开看一看
Let's open it and take a look (inside)
Hope this was helpful!
