Sunset Hour draws on the blazing skies of Broome, on Australia's north-west coast, as the sun sinks into the Indian Ocean. Its common thread is the desert peach, a native fruit with a lively tartness, which the house describes with a hint of rhubarb and a salty touch.
Desert peach and mandarin open on a juicy note, which the house pairs with pear and raspberry. Jasmine sambac blooms at the heart with a salted caramel, then vanilla and benzoin from Laos lay a soft, enveloping base. A fruity gourmand, playful and refined, composed by Honorine Blanc.

Sunset Hour in detail
Goldfield & Banks, an Australian house founded by Dimitri Weber, combines Australia's native plants with the know-how of French perfumery. Sunset Hour belongs to The Native Collection and evokes sunset over Broome, on the north-west coast: a fruity, sunny, slightly salty gourmand. It is signed by Honorine Blanc.
The official pyramid opens on desert peach, a tart Australian fruit, and mandarin. The heart pairs jasmine sambac and caramel, a sunny flower and a melting sweetness. The base brings together vanilla and benzoin, a warm, resinous foundation that extends the gourmand side.
Sunset Hour is worn in summer and autumn, by day or by night: the end of a day by the sea, an aperitif, a mild evening.
Three gourmand fragrances in our catalogue come close: Sintra by Memo Paris shares vanilla and caramel; Alone in Babylon by Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777 finds vanilla again; Enigma Pour Homme by Roja Parfums pairs benzoin and vanilla with cognac and tobacco.
