Sunset Hour Dark Peach by Goldfield & Banks was created as a deeper, more enveloping interpretation of Sunset Hour. Its inspiration comes from the glowing sunsets of Broome in Western Australia, that moment when the heat of the day begins to soften without fully disappearing. The composition keeps the carefree mood of an Australian summer evening, but shifts it into something warmer, richer and more intimate.
The opening sets up that play between brightness and depth straight away. Jamaica rum brings a mellow, liqueur-like warmth that defines the mood from the start, while pink berries add a lively, spicy lift. Italian mandarin cuts through with a clean citrus glow, like the last strong light still hanging on the horizon. This is not an airy, sparkling introduction; it feels smoother and more radiant, with the impression of sun-warmed skin at dusk.
At the heart, perfumer Clément Marx gives the fragrance more texture and nuance. Organic Madagascar ginger adds an aromatic freshness and a subtle tension that keeps the composition agile. Benzoin introduces a soft balsamic density, wrapping the heart in a warm, resinous tone. Upcycled ylang brings a floral note with a naturally solar character, folded into the structure with restraint so the fragrance remains centred on its amber warmth.
The drydown rests on vanilla, woody ambers and tonka bean. This is where the gourmand facet becomes clearer, though it is handled with control rather than excess. Vanilla softens the edges, tonka bean adds a gently toasted sweetness, and woody ambers extend the sense of lingering heat. Rather than reading as overtly sweet, Sunset Hour Dark Peach suggests the calm of a long evening, balancing comfort, glow and sensuality with precision.
Released in 2026, this unisex Eau de Parfum captures the relaxed spirit of an Australian summer at sundown in a signature that feels fuller and more embracing. It leaves behind a mood of polished ease, like the memory of open-air conversation as daylight fades into night.
