Goldfield & Banks Australia Island Lush is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Amélie Jacquin. Island Lush opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Nutmeg, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Cedar, Guaiac Wood, Iris, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Leather, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Patchouli. Goldfield & Banks Australia's Island Lush carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive and aptly named, yet not for the reasons you'd expect. Forget tropical cocktails; this is a dense, spicy, leathery beast some call a masterpiece, others burnt toast. Try before you buy, it's certainly a conversation starter.

About

Island Lush opens with a warming burst of nutmeg and ginger, brightened by bergamot and a hint of pink pepper. This spicy introduction quickly deepens, revealing a powdery iris and a robust, woody heart of guaiac wood and cedar. The dry down settles into a creamy, earthy blend of rich leather, smooth sandalwood, vetiver, and patchouli, softened by benzoin.
