Escapade Gourmande is a well-made but extremely sweet vanilla fragrance that fails to live up to its social media hype. While it's technically superior to comparable overhyped releases, the overwhelming sweetness limits its appeal and makes it redundant for most vanilla fragrance collectors.

Xerjoff Lira is a polarizing gourmand fragrance that impresses devoted fans with its delicious cake-like scent, interesting supporting notes, and strong projection, but frustrates others with its cloying sweetness, play-doh undertones, and high price-to-performance ratio. Community consensus is that it's excellent for gourmand enthusiasts who enjoy extremely sweet fragrances and don't mind moderate longevity, but requires careful sampling before purchase.
