Velvet Splendour
Velvet Splendour
Velvet Splendour is like holding a large bunch of sunburnt wildflowers in both arms and pressing one’s face gently into it. An impressionist’s painting of a long drive through the open, breezy and cloudless countryside.
The mimosa (wattle) tree bursting into bloom, marking the first sign of spring in Australia. Soft yellows are shaded against blue skies. The first inhale is an immediate mix of green stems, yellow blooms, cool air and warm light. Bold, sensual and glamorous.
All Goldfield & Banks perfumes have a concentration of +20% essences and are tested under extreme humid weather conditions.
Perfumer: Wessel Jan Kos
Origin Wattle (Mimosa): Flinders Ranges - South Australia
Velvet Splendour is cruelty free, and is created following the stringent health guidelines set by the International Fragrance Association (IFRA 49th Amendment).

About Goldfield & Banks
About Goldfield & Banks
Combining the science of Australia's most authentic native essences with centuries of French expertise in the art of perfume making, Goldfield & Banks perfumes, created in Australia, are a quest for the ultimate Australian olfactory experience. Australian native botanical essences have been carefully selected to create a new and haunting Australian dream – one of burning deserts, sparkling coastal vistas and deep, beautifully scented forests. With elements rarely used in modern perfumery, each has been carefully unraveled to expose its honest and stunning beauty.
All Goldfield & Banks fragrances are at minimum 20% scented essences, displaying the richness of their high concentration. Each of these perfumes have an olfactory luxuriousness and woody depth that can only be extracted from the purest Australian and global essences. Founder Dimitri Weber’s niche approach to fragrances reveals a richness and ambition that has put us on the forefront of world-class fragrance development. It is one of the few fragrance houses that Bisma relishes in its entirety.
