Not my cup of tea

Unfortunately, Velvet Splendour won't work for me. Somehow I don't like the character of the fragrance, although I like most of the notes.

I don't like the mixture of mimosa, vetiver, sandalwood, vetiver, jasmine and mandarin and it seems a bit old to my nose. The fragrance suits women over 35 very well, as it has something very mature about it.

The longevity is quite good here and the sillage is also good mid-range.

Robust, hearty floral gem, classic meets modern

Goldfield & Banks Velvet Splendou is a floral/fresh/spicy/resinous blend that’s as velvety smooth as its name suggests. It has an opulent, powdery quality that smells like grand perfumes of old, with plenty of florals, citruses, and resins. The standout notes to me are heliotrope, oppoponax, tonka, mandarin, patchouli, leather, and vetiver. It leans traditionally feminine, at least on my skin, and performs outstandingly—I’d certainly like to try it some more and would encourage others to, also, perhaps as part of a discovery set, which I’ve found to be a lot of fun to go through, scent by scent. Overall, Velvet Splendour is rich and has a classy timelessness to it, and fits in nicely within the collection as something new.

It’s priced at $190 for 100ml like most of the current main collection and is sold via retailers like Perfumology.

Velvet Splendour

Apparently this fragrance would like to recreate the smell of immersing your face in a bouquet of flowers with the sun warming the air... I'll start by saying that I don't perceive this sensation.
I find the opening very harsh (perhaps the mandarin is already involved), which gradually softens, giving way to the white flowers, which however I don't find as engaging as if I felt them live.
A pleasant, flowery fragrance, but nothing more.

Powdery Fresh Linen

To me, this fragrance is a soft, fresh, clean smell. Very feminine, but also very unremarkable.

The opening note is powdery floral. I especially detect the lavender, jasmine and orange blossoms. The hint of citrus gives it a fresh feel but isn't overpowering. It settles into a nice, clean, unobtrusive smell. This could easily be a signature scent that you can wear to the office all year long and no one would ever complain or think twice about it. In fact, it smells so much like a dryer sheet or laundry detergent, everyone will just think you are a very clean person!

On the other hand, that means this fragrance my feel blasé to some. You likely won't get many compliments, since people may just assume the smell is coming from your clothing or, as someone else mentioned, hand lotion.
