Goldfield & Banks Rose Magnitude EDP
Description
Rose Magnitude is a rose grown wild rather than in a garden: fruity at first, spiced and earthy underneath, creamy by the end. It is the 2026 addition to the Botanical Series from Goldfield & Banks, the Australian house founded by Dimitri Weber, and was composed by Clément Marx of Robertet with Weber. The house draws on Australia's pink salt lakes under pastel skies. Fresh raspberry and Egyptian cumin open it, with orris butter and buckwheat adding a powdery, toasted edge. Damask rose, violet, geranium and ginger form the heart, and it settles on black vanilla, tonka, sandalwood-amyris and papyrus. The cumin is a real presence in the opening, so this is a rose with some grit to it.
Fragrance Pyramid
- Top: Raspberry, Egyptian Cumin, Orris Butter, Buckwheat
- Heart: Damask Rose, Violet, Geranium, Ginger
- Base: Black Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood, Amyris, Papyrus
Note: listed as published by Goldfield & Banks. Some databases place the geranium and ginger in the opening and the orris in the heart; the materials are the same.
Performance
Longevity: Too new for a settled reviewer consensus. The house describes it as intimate yet diffusive.
Sillage: Expect a moderate trail from the rose and spice in the first hours.
Projection: Arm's length early on, then closer as the vanilla and woods take over.
An honest note: we would rather not quote hours for a 2026 release until real-world reports build up. It is an eau de parfum at 26% concentration, which is high for the category.
Best Occasions & Season
Most at home in Fall and Winter, for evenings, dinners and time off. Unisex: the cumin and woods keep the rose from reading as purely feminine. Skip it if cumin bothers you; it shows clearly in the first half hour.

FAQ
What does Rose Magnitude smell like?
Raspberry and a dry, slightly salty cumin up front, then a full Damask rose with violet and ginger, drying down to creamy vanilla, tonka and sandalwood.
Is it men's or women's?
Unisex. The rose is central, but the cumin, ginger and woods give it a neutral feel.
Is it a sweet rose?
Only in the drydown, where vanilla and tonka soften it. The opening is fruity and spiced rather than sugary.
