Velvet Splendour by Goldfield & Banks opens on mimosa, mandarin orange and orange blossom, sunny and a little powdery at once. Jasmine sambac carries the heart, full and slightly heady. The base is where it earns its name: tonka bean, Australian sandalwood and leather combine into something warm, smooth and faintly animalic. Perfumer Wessel-Jan Kos made it as an Eau de Parfum in 2019, and it suits people who want a fragrance with real weight behind it, not something that fades fast. Voters wear it in winter and autumn, mostly in the evening and at night. The community read leans long-lasting on the skin and strong in the air, going by the votes. A 3ml decant is enough to test it through a run of cold evenings before you decide on more.

The community verdict
Mimosa shapes Velvet Splendour, with mandarin and orange blossom at the start before jasmine sambac, tonka bean and sandalwood emerge. Long-lasting wear leads, with exceptionally long-lasting wear also reported; projection tends towards strong, though moderate has its share. It fits winter evenings, while autumn and nights work too.
