megank4 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 GOOD CHEERRoasted chestnuts and candied figs. Oh, am I first?Wooh!To me, this opens with a strong nut note, I wouldn't say chestnuts so much as walnuts maybe.Afterwards, fig, but not candied fig.Very nice, very Christmasy.

Venneh Report post Posted December 27, 2011 You know how Puddin' was saying over in the BPTP forum that this was similar to Steeplechase Park? Man doesn't lie. This is Steeplechase, but with the fig giving it a bit more of a depth. This is Steeplechase taken up to eleven. In short, amazing, and definitely horde-worthy.

Deceitfuldescender Report post Posted December 29, 2011 So... this is amazing. I never got to try steeplechase, but holy crap this is good. It has almost buttery nuts (I'm not good at identifying one nut versus another) with an uncloying but strong candied scent behind it. Must. Have. More.

angelicruin Report post Posted January 5, 2012 I agree with the buttery nuts description mingled with candied fruit. It is quite pleasant, but I find it less "rich" than Steeplechase Park, but then maybe that is for the better because SP tends to be too heavy a scent for me at times.

Poenari Report post Posted January 7, 2012 I love to eat roasted chestnuts but I couldn't for the life of me describe how they smell. My dad used to fix chestnuts for us to snack on at Christmas time, so I always get a nostalgic feeling when I fix them, especially now that he is gone. Christmas was also his birthday, so the smell of roasted chestnuts is very comforting to me and completely evokes Christmas, my dad, and my childhood. However, they are really hard to find and expensive too, so I don't have the opportunity to smell them often. Now that I have a decant of Good Cheer, I can smell the roasted chestnuts whenever I want to! This is warm roasted nuts, with a sweetness from the fig, but not too sweet. It makes me feel comfortable and cozy and warm, and I just adore it. Going to have to order a full bottle of this one for sure, and quite possible a backup just to be sure I don't run out!

violetblue Report post Posted January 30, 2012 Super nutty - reminds me of a coffee shop for some reason along with some resin notes. Mine smells super nutty, but sweet too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gin Report post Posted March 1, 2012 I was nervous about Good Cheer. I love fig, but nut/wood notes can go wonky. Luckily, Good Cheer does not seem to have that problem. I don't get a lot of fig, which is kind of sad, but the chestnut is just perfect--very much like a the Spiced Chestnut candles from Williams-Sonoma that I love. I'm so glad I took a chance on this.

whataboutprom Report post Posted March 8, 2012 Scrumptious! I've never smelled roasted chestnuts, but this smells a lot like the candied walnuts a friend of mine makes for the holidays. I don't really get fig, but the toasty, sweet chestnut fragrance is divine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zankoku_zen Report post Posted September 17, 2015 Good Cheer smells like baked goods - roasted chestnuts, touch of fig and honey. This smells delicious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bellumed Report post Posted January 23, 2016 Good Cheer is incredibly delicious and a perfect winter scent: cozy and sweet and a little spicy. Great staying power, too! I sprayed this before I came home for the holiday, and when I got back I could immediately detect it, light but still clinging to my blankets. My room smells really, really good.
