SILKY WOODS - GOLDFIELD & BANKS

Wrapped in molten gold and infused with precious agarwood, Silky Woods is the aptly named first fragrance in a new luxury collection called the Botanical Series by Goldfield & Banks.

Featuring precious wood species sustainably harvested for the first time in perfumery history from the Daintree Rainforest in tropical Queensland, Silky Woods is a delicious and delicate, yet highly sensual blend that captures the sensory experience of Australia.

A modern scent of suede, exotic vanilla and smoky tobacco leaves, Goldfield & Banks has added refined essences of saffron, frankincense, ylang ylang and native sandalwood.

Silky Woods is a celebration of Australia’s abundance of organic ingredients and the local innovation with which they are transformed into globally coveted essences.

About Silky Woods:
A more subtle, luxurious and modern interpretation of agarwood (also known as oud). It is comfortable to wear on any occasion and offers the sensation of a gourmand and musky fragrance on soft and silky skin.

The bottle:
Eager to showcase Australia's leading expertise in botanical research and development, Goldfield & Banks has wrapped its creation in packaging as sumptuous as the perfume it contains. Each French glass bottle is lacquered in gold and filled with 24-carat gold dust, in homage to the romance of the Australian gold rush and the seduction of the native flora, nuts, woods and seeds that inspire each of the house’s fragrances.

Silky Woods is packaged in a luxurious Goldfield & Banks suede pouch.

The result of this new creation is the scent of a journey in search of Australia’s ultimate olfactory treasures, a journey that recalls botanist Joseph Banks’ first visit to Australia in 1770. There he discovered exotic plants previously unknown to science, in much the same way that Goldfield & Banks, Dimitri Weber, has been on a mission to celebrate Australia’s indigenous ingredients since launching his luxury fragrance house in 2016.

A modern explorer of scent and sensuality, Dimitri Weber was fascinated by the agarwood plantations in the country’s tropics. Seduced by the intricacies of the plantation techniques and the sustainable methods used to harvest and extract this unique and precious oil, he formed a friendship with the growers in Far North Queensland.

Goldfield & Banks’ new Botanical Series celebrates the exceptional purity, idyllic climate and rich soil that have made Australia a fertile continent like no other. Long known as the birthplace of clean beauty trends, Australia is now the new frontier for perfumery, locally growing the world's most prestigious fragrance ingredients in a serene, lush environment.

Silky Woods is cruelty-free.
