Purple Suede is the beguiling new addition to the Goldfield & Banks Botanical Series.

Discover more about Purple Suede:
Tasmanian lavender – a French affair.
Introduced in the early days of the twentieth century and coming to thrive in the pristine environment of its newfound Australian terroir, Tasmania’s lavender is a cultivar of the highly fragrant Lavandula angustifolia species. Grown for centuries in France, this species is a grey-green shrub renowned for its mass of soft purple and violet flower spears that give off an intensely fragrant and unusually sweet and pure perfume.
