JTC 400 vs Lira

The r/fragrance community views Happyland Studio as an underrated American indie house offering excellent performance and value. Customers appreciate the fresh fragrance line and strong longevity, though some initial releases were less compelling, and the brand remains less accessible than mainstream niche houses.

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.
