Silky Woods Elixir by Goldfield & Banks is an extrait de parfum built for depth, made by perfumers Hamid Merati-Kashani and Olivier Cresp. Fig and saffron open it, ripe and lightly spiced. Orris, Peru balsam and rose bring a powdery, almost velvet middle. The base is where it earns its name: agarwood, guaiac wood, musk, oakmoss and vanilla, smoky and dense against skin. Launched in 2023, it suits men and women who want a woody scent with real weight rather than a light one. Voters wear it in summer and spring, through the day and at the office. The longevity vote leans long-lasting, and the sillage vote comes back strong, so one spray carries. A 3ml decant is enough to know whether that much wood suits you.

More from Goldfield & Banks
Goldfield & Banks began in Sydney in 2016, when Dimitri Weber set out to put Australia's landscapes and native plants into perfume. The range is built on woods: sandalwood, vetiver and cedar, warmed by amber and vanilla and lifted by mandarin, bergamot or ginger. Bohemian Lime is the first to try, followed by Silky Woods and Sunset Hour. For something richer, Sunset Hour Dark Peach is sweet amber and vanilla, and Tales of Amber turns up the spice. Ingenious Ginger is brighter, citrus and flowers over a soft vanilla base. Most of the range is made to be shared, so wear whichever calls to you.
