Inspired by a holiday Dimitri (G&B founder) took to Fraser Island – the abundance of lush woods found on the island intrigued him. This rich, buttery, woody fragrance pays homage to the incredible paradise that is Fraser Island.
Giant trees, rural land, a beautiful, picturesque beach with panoramic views. Wood Infusion feels soft and velvety on the skin – it’s a rich woody scent with a familiar warmth to it. Featuring oud/agarwood, it also has an earthy, almost dirty tone to it, as untameable as the terrain it is inspired by.

HOW IT WEARS
Wood Infusion begins with a blast of wood accented by the brightness of sweet orange, redolent of freshly cut wood. Once it settles a little, the spicy and aromatic notes appear, but they aren’t so strong as to overwhelm the real stars of the scent – the Australian sandalwood and oud. The dry down is a smooth, musky, woody scent that has an edge of freshness to it. With fabulous longevity as a parfum, Wood Infusion will last 8-10 hour on the skin.
LORE LOVES
Wood Infusion is the fragrance for those who like the scent of oud but don’t love how strong it can be. This is the perfect light, musky oud scent – still unique, still earthy and almost animalic, but not oppressive or overly intense.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Goldfield & Banks, Australia’s first luxury fragrance house, was founded by Sydney-based Dimitri Weber in 2016. After moving to Australia, French-Belgian Weber fell in love with the country’s lush, aromatic, and botanical beauty, and felt compelled to create a perfume line paying tribute to its extraordinary beauty. Combining the science of Australia’s most authentic native essences with centuries of French expertise in the art of perfume making, Goldfield & Banks’ perfumes are a quest for the ultimate Australian olfactory experience.
The Goldfield & Banks range contains an array of carefully chosen native botanicals, selected to create a new and haunting Australian dream – one of burning deserts, sparkling coastal vistas and deep, beautifully scented forests. The sustainable quality of these ingredients represents an innovative and contemporary approach to perfume oil production and showcases Australia’s leading expertise in botanical research and development. The result is a modern yet timeless collection of genderless luxury perfumes for all genders.
