A fruity sweet perfume that delivers no excitement or innovation
There's nothing wrong with this perfume, other than the lack of excitement or wonder it provided me when I first smelled it on my skin. While perusing the Inspiration section of the fragrance's page, I could see why. It smells quite similar to Cloud Eau de Parfum with an added marshmallow sweetness that is reminiscent of Sci Fi. Both scents I have already smelled and ruled out from adding to my collection (although I did briefly own Cloud at the beginning of my journey).

The beginning is slightly tart from the raspberries with a strong powdery pear. Italian mandarin orange provides an added fruitiness and sweetness to the beginning. Coconut cream doesn't take too long before appearing and, along with jasmine sambac, adds this creamy, marshmallowy feel to the perfume. Ginger and green mango give it a spicy, green-like kick to it that avoids it from going down the indolic route or the overly powdery path. It doesn't take long before sandalwood rises up. It gives the perfume a woody base with a creamy sweetness. Benzoin and cashmere woods add warmth towards the end. It fades away rather quite fast for a niche perfume at that price point.

Like I've mentioned before, it's not that it isn't good, it's just an uninspiring scent. It doesn't stir any particular memory in me or any sense of wonder. It's lovely if you love sweet and fruity perfume, but other than that, I failed to see what others have seen in it. If you're looking for a more mature, grown-up version of Cloud with a fruity facet, this could be the one for you. Unfortunately, the sun will be setting on any hope of this perfume making it in my collection.

Nice multifaceted blend, fresh sweet fruity resinous woody floral
Goldfield & Banks Sunset Hour is a fresh, fruity, ambery mix featuring mandarin, raspberry, sandalwood, benzoin, ginger, and jasmine, a medley that is pleasant, uplifting, hearty, unisex, and fairly opulent-smelling. It fits in nicely among the house’s collection of natural, fresh compositions that have broad appeal and utility, in my opinion, and while I’d argue that this and some of the others are not too unique, it’s nonetheless an easygoing escape to the outdoors, perhaps tropical, while in an office cubicle. Not among my very favorites of the line so far but still quite nice.

Sunset Hour is part of the main collection, currently priced at $190/130/36 for 100/50/10ml, quite reasonable in the current market in my opinion, sold in US boutiques like Perfumology, and with very good performance.

Summer
I have a love hate relationship with Goldfield & Banks. The description of the perfumes make me very interested in this brand. Only the perfumes of this brand often remind me of other perfumes. On a whim, I bought this perfume blindly. Was even a little nervous about trying the perfume. But the nerves were for nothing. The first burst is an explosion of sweet fruit. In a few minutes the perfume suddenly becomes very powdery (reminds me of Cockatiel by Zoologist), only to change into a clear fruity peach yoghurt after a few minutes. These three phases follow each other very quickly and then quickly move on to the fourth and final phase; fruity and floral (jasmine). The jasmine is strong and dominant and the fruity yoghurt note balances it out. Daydreaming reminds me of Super Mario's Peach sitting on the beach with colorful parakeets flying around her, enjoying the setting sun and drinking from a coconut. I know, my imagination is big. But what makes this perfume in combination with this daydream me happy.

Sandalwood with LaCroix-level Raspberry
I don't think this one really works with my skin chemistry, because the notes promise so much, and I get so little out of it. At initial spray, I get a whisper of tart raspberry and an entire forest of sandalwood. A bit of spice does come through with the ginger but the woods in the base are completely dominant. It's warm, but kind of dry since the fruitiness and sweetness aren't present on my skin. I don't necessarily dislike this perfume, but it's not what I was hoping for.

Tropical But Not "Margaritaville" Tropical
I want to be a tropical fragrance person but I'm a landlocked flatlander and I just don't really relate to "beachy" fragrances even if I like them. I think they usually come off kind of cheesy the way I think tropical vacations are a little cheesy. Salt water, pina colada, deck chair, etc.

I like this a lot! First, this is the first peach fragrance I've smelled that didn't smell like peach candy. And it's very peach-forward, especially at the start.

Fruit is the focus in this fragrance but it smells like real, fresh fruit (the green-ness of the mango makes it smell more real I think) and the woodiness is really grounding. I usually complain about jasmine but it's unobtrusive here. And it's not salty! I really don't like wearing briny notes so I'm grateful that's not what this is.

It doesn't really evoke a feeling for me (why would it? I've been to maybe 2 tropical beaches in my entire life.) but it does evoke an image. Even before I read the description I got a mental image of a deserted coastline with trees heavy with fruit and jasmine blooming somewhere. They set out to paint a picture of a landscape and I think this was a slam dunk.

Goldfield and Banks continues to impress me! I think I will get that little travel trio that has this, Pacific Rock Moss, and Bohemian Lime.

A peachy summer gourmand. Leans feminine but I think it would be a great summer date night fragrance for men

Headache-inducing powdery peach scent. The opening is very juicy though, liked it.

Like a fancy cocktail without booze - dry fruity notes, then warm wood. I also get a "bandage" scent similar to BR540. Sophisticated, unisex.

A syrupy peach-based fruit cocktail mixed with a creamy sweet coconut and uplifting hint of jasmine, tempered by a warm woody base.

A beautifully blended, sweet fruity frag that's a bit too tropical for me, but I suspect would be a hit if you're into that scent profile.

I wanted to love this! But the dry down is beyond disappointing. Top notes are lovely and sparkling but they vanish quickly into bitterness.
