Superb suede, fully purple via floral, sweet, resinous touches.

Goldfield & Banks Purple Suede is a 2022 release that is part of the botanical series (that also includes Silky Woods and Island Lush), an aptly-named suede-centric fragrance that has sweet, dark, and floral qualities, conjuring its purple name. It’s rich and smooth, easy to wear despite being very interesting, with a lot of nuance, like resinous and slightly smoky touches, all with a bit, but not too much sweetness. Additional notes include lavender, pink pepper, patchouli, and oakmoss.

Purple Suede, as with the rest of the Botanical Series, is priced at $240/47 for 100/10ml, so not cheap, but I find it’s very nice to have a 10ml option for both a more extended trial and for travel, so props to the brand for that. It’s sold at boutiques like Perfumology and Luckyscent that carry the brand.

Tiger Balm & Corodin Drops

So far I've been a silent reader here, getting inspiration, tips and the one or other swing fragrance in life - until this perfume now makes me write my first own post here. First of all, I bought Purple Suede in a perfumery, so it wasn't a blind buy. I liked the herbaceous, slightly tart scent that just smells different - not typically masculine, not typically feminine. I could smell lavender and actually a bit of suede. I thought. Wore it the first time I was on the road with my sister. Who got in the car and already said, "Funny, it smells like Tiger Balm here. Are you having migraines again?" - Well, after the smell popped up a few times a day she could better identify it: "That's def. you! Tigerbalm! Definitely! But wait, there's something else. That smells like Korodin drops. Tiger balm and Korodin drops!" Okay. Whew. I don't know, the perfume really didn't smell that bad now, did it? Didn't it? Okay. When I got used to the Korodin Tigerbalm dilemma with one laughing and one crying eye (you know, Korodin drops are those biting alcoholic herbal camphor drops when your circulation drops), my partner comes home in the evening, is barely in the door and said, "What's that smell? Do you have a migraine? Or are those incense sticks?" Nooooo!!!!! Really?!

Overall summary: For me, the fragrance is strongly herbaceous, I smell patchouli and actually leather (although not suede), I would classify it a tad more masculine - which I like pers. I wear almost no female perfume.

With me, however, he gets this strong medical touch. I can no longer deny the similarity to Korodin and Tigerbalm, and still disagree with myself about how d'accord I am with smelling like this. So, sure - everyone as he wants of course!

What you have to credit the fragrance: Sillage and durability are unbeatable. Applied in the morning, evening still very well perceptible. I had the perfume ursprgl. classified as a summer fragrance, but will dare me rather on cooler days again, possibly does him then quite well. And I have to reduce significantly.

Warm and elegant

A friend of mine played a game with me and sent me a sample of this perfume with a “?” on the label. So without knowing what to expect here are my thoughts:

At the beginning it smells quite classic, masculine and 90s vibe (i then realized it was the lavender).

Then i smelt a weird mix between apple and tobacco, with a slightly sweet vanillix background. I then realized the tobacco was actually the oud/suede combo.

Overall, i really liked and the overall review was apple/tobacco/vanilla mix, with a classic intro and a similar vibe to Silky Woods in the drydown. He told me “you’re not that far with silky woods” :-)
I actually thought it was a parfums de marly for the apple slightly designer-ish feel.

At the end of the game he told me Purple Suede and i realized everything. Really good one, the drydown is very similar to silky woods but this is more fruity in the middle and quite sharp and sparkling at the beginning.
