Olfactory description:
A masterful blend of buttery South Pacific Sandalwood, rich in vanilla and orris powderiness, and the greener, spicier, smokier Australian Sandalwood, Island Lush offers a Sandalwood heart as enchantingly nuanced as it is seductive, embellishing it further in swathes of vetiver, leather, agarwood, and indulgent benzoin.
The bottle:
Committed to showcasing Australia’s world-leading expertise in botanical research and development, Goldfield & Banks has encased this creation in packaging as lavish as the scent it holds. Every French glass bottle is coated in lacquer containing 24 carat gold, in a tribute to the romance of the Australian Gold Rush and the seduction of the nation’s indigenous flora, nuts, woods and seeds that inspire every one of the house’s fragrances. Every Island Lush 100ml perfume is gift wrapped in a luxury Goldfield & Banks suede pouch.
Discover more about Island Lush:
Native to the island archipelagos of Vanuatu and New Caledonia, South Pacific Sandalwood – Santalum austrocaledonicum – is an evergreen tree growing nine metres in height, wild-harvested by local communities for its prized heartwood and roots. Looking to these idyllic island shores in search of new and rare natural materials, Goldfield & Banks has created Island Lush, the first luxury perfume in its collection to explore the rich character of this South Pacific Sandalwood. This sumptuous oil of gilded and radiant character is cultivated in Vanuatu and distilled in Australia. Island Lush is cruelty free, vegan, and is created following the stringent health guidelines set by the International Fragrance Association (IFRA 49th Amendment).

Intoxicating dressed up spiced sandalwood
My new favourite Goldfield & Banks!
A true gem for lovers of sandalwood or spicy, woody, resinous fragrances. If you love other iconic fragrances like Memo African Leather or BDK Gris Charnel Extract - then you must sample this fragrance!
The sandalwood note is so divine! It has fruity nuances; a sweetness to my nose like fig fruit, which truly compliments the woody and resinous notes and that smooth leather backbone.
Island Lush is unisex leaning masculine (in the opening) but anyone can wear this! I wore it for 7 hours today and it was still projecting when I got home after a day in the heat. I would wear this to any dressy occasion, date night, anytime you want to impress.
