We absolutely adore mimosa-based scents, so when word arrived that the newest Goldfield & Banks would feature golden wattle, or Australian mimosa, we were delighted. But what we never could have anticipated is just how uniquely different from European mimosa golden wattle turns out to be- powdery and woodsy, with gentle tones of green fruit, this is a hearty and distinctive floral note all its own- one that truly captures the rugged beauty of the Flinders Ranges in Southern Australia where the wattle used in this fragrance is harvested.
As Goldfield & Banks is so adept at accomplishing, every supplemental ingredient in this cheerfully complex floral brings out a new aspect of the golden wattle- bright, fresh mandarin, smooth orange blossom and jasmine, and soft, gently earthy woods produce a refined naturalism. If you're a mimosa lover looking for something you've never quite tried before, or if you're simply seeking a gorgeous and unique floral perfect for any occasion, Velvet Splendor is ray of warm sunshine.
