Southern Bloom by Goldfield & Banks opens on tart cassis and mandarin orange before turning properly floral. Boronia sits at the heart alongside jasmine sambac and ylang-ylang, with coconut and iris giving it a tropical, slightly powdery sweetness. Amber, musk, sandalwood and vetiver settle the base into something warm and earthy rather than sugary. Perfumers Francois Merle-Baudoin and Hamid Merati-Kashani built it as an Eau de Parfum in 2018, and it suits men and women who want a floral that leans tropical rather than delicate. Voters keep it for spring and summer, mainly during the day and often at the office. Wearers lean toward calling it long-lasting, while the sillage read leans more moderate, so it holds without announcing itself. A 3ml decant makes an easy way to live with a tropical floral before buying more.
