Goldfield & Banks Australia

Set beneath a sunlit canopy of lush tropical rainforest, the scent evokes an image of native citrus trees drawing life from nearby cascading fresh waterfalls. With its invigorating opening of Australian finger lime and coriander, Bohemian Lime mellows to reveal blissful grounding notes of vetiver, cedar wood and sandalwood.

 About Sunset Hour:

Fun and frivolous from the onset, Sunset Hour opens with a crisp pear, mandarin and desert peach accord – a tart peach- and rhubarb-nuanced fruity note with a distinctive salt crusted, sun-kissed skin feel. Carrying through the heart, jasmine’s rich white floralcy with green mango, ginger and coconut cream enhance the tropical exoticism of the desert peach as pink pepper lends sharpness to this central ingredient’s tartness. All the while, Australian sandalwood, itself a close relative of the Quandong, provides a spiced-green-woodsy springboard for the fruity decadence of the coconut and desert peach, which carry through to the plush musk-vanilla base.

 Origin Desert Peach: Broome

To a modern sillage of suede, exotic vanilla and smoky tobacco leaves, Goldfield & Banks has added refined essences of saffron, incense, ylang ylang and native sandalwood.

 About Ingenious Ginger:

To create an accord to represent the imagined beauty of the unscented torch ginger lily flower, Goldfield & Banks has used an olfactory native material – Red Back Ginger – as the starting point for this accord, rather than deriving it from an extract. Together with bergamot, mandarin, magnolia, vanilla, musk, and amber, perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani realised Dimitri Weber’s scented vision for this flower.

With Ingenious Ginger, Goldfield & Banks is the first perfume house to explore Australian Red Back Ginger as an olfactory material and to add this complex native botanical to its all-Australian luxury perfume collection.

  Origin Red Back Ginger: Atherton Tablelands

Seize the day and experience a moment of pure bliss with this aquatic and fresh perfume.

A fragrance for men and women, inspired by waves crashing upon sun-kissed rocks and long days that turn into warm, summer nights.

Dark and excessive, Silky Woods Elixir is a smoky reawakening of the Australian agarwood originally used in Silky Woods Eau de Parfum. This exotic botanical is one of the most mysterious and revered essences in perfumery. Meticulously crafted with fig, saffron, orris, and syrupy balsam to reveal both the complex heart of agarwood and its verdant foliage, this woody and gourmand perfume is rich with luxurious intensity and sensuality.

 A woody and gourmand perfume, Silky Woods Elixir is for true connoisseurs.

• Oud Assafi

 Olfactory Description 

Silky Woods Elixir opens in flurry of green aromatics as verdant as the canopy of the agarwood groves where its essence is born. Heightened by the lushness of sun-ripened figs and the earthen verdure of fig leaves, an overdose of the hypnotic essence of Australian-grown agarwood from the world’s oldest rainforest flourishes, intensifying the depth of the composition, and painting it in rich shades of auburn and gold. Prized for centuries for its exquisite quality and rarity, the precious Oud Assafi elevates the Elixir with a lavish woodiness. The animalic and ambery notes from the Oud Assafi combined with the Australian agarwood creates the ultimate luxurious and complex Oud experience on your skin. Against this resounding intensity, iris root lends its soft touch, taming the bitter effect of the fig leaves, with rose lending an exquisite floral dimension to the perfume’s burgeoning heart. As the Elixir deepens, Tolu balsam weaves a rich tapestry, infusing warmth, and complexity into a gourmand base of oud, saffron, musk, and oakmoss.

ABOUT MYSTIC BLISS

Opening with a breeze of top notes evoking Flinders Island’s diverse impressions, Mystic Bliss is at once bracing and beautiful. Kunzea Accord – woodsy, aromatic and restorative – melds seamlessly with the resinous pepperiness, the warmth of oliban to capture the island's ancient and untouched feel. Fig and mint add a layer of freshness, a cool touch, with the fig growing ever more ripe in the presence of cardamon and cassis. 

Evolving, the heart notes unfurl, dancing through the composition as if taking cue from the Aurora Australis lights. First, clary sage, herbaceous and green, before caramel lends a touch of indulgence – a rich contrast to geranium’s green rosiness. The Kunzea, now more plush against this cool aromatic heart, in flashes of purple, carries through the drydown. Cedar and sandalwood, their rich, woody scents evoking the ancient forests of Flinders Island, are burnished with labdanum’s amber-like warmth as vetiver lends an earthen foundation grounding Mystic Bliss with a deep, resonant finish.

Purple Suede is the beguiling new addition to the Goldfield & Banks Botanical Series.
