Goldfield & Banks Wood Infusion Eau de Parfum

What it smells like

Wood Infusion is a woody-aromatic perfume inspired by the heritage-listed K’gari (Fraser Island). It opens with a soft, aromatic touch of lavender before the woods take over.

The heart layers powdery orris with rich agarwood, luminous and refined. The base is a creamy blend of Australian sandalwood, earthy patchouli, soft musk and warm amber, deep and enveloping without ever turning harsh. The result is a smooth, rounded woody scent — luxurious and easy to wear, like polished timber warmed by the sun.

Who made it

Goldfield & Banks fragrances are composed by Hamid Merati-Kashani, the house’s principal perfumer, working under the creative direction of founder Dimitri Weber. A classically trained nose who has spent his career with the world’s leading fragrance suppliers, Merati-Kashani has become the interpreter of a singular brief: to translate native Australian botanicals — sandalwood, boronia, finger lime, blue cypress, red-back ginger — into wearable luxury, often building world-first accords around materials no one had used in fine perfumery before. His signature balances bold, natural raw materials with polished, refined structures that wear beautifully.

Who it’s for

For lovers of creamy, refined woods and soft orris who want depth with wearability. Fully unisex and sophisticated.

When to wear it

Best in autumn, winter and cooler evenings, its sandalwood-and-amber warmth ideal for cold weather, though smooth enough for year-round wear.

About the house

Goldfield & Banks is an Australian niche perfume house founded in 2016 by Dimitri Weber, the first to build a luxury fragrance line around native Australian botanicals. Each scent is a journey to a specific place on the continent, from the tropical rainforests of Queensland to the lavender fields of Tasmania and the glowing sunsets of Broome. The range spans the accessible Native Collection and the richer, more concentrated Botanical Series, all crafted with a high proportion of natural essences and presented in weighty, gold-accented bottles. It is offered here at Redolia Perfumery as a full 100 ml bottle.
