Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's ‘favourite Aussie perfumes' just dropped a dreamy new scent
Goldfield & Banks, the perfumery adored by A-listers (yes, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are reportedly fans), has just released Pacific Rock Flower and it's already turning heads for all the right reasons.
A sparkling new chapter in the brand's beloved Pacific Rock Moss story, Pacific Rock Flower is a luminous, aquatic-floral fragrance that's every bit as fresh as a salty sea breeze.
The scent is described as a shimmering blend of wild botanicals, sea spray and windswept blooms, capturing the wild beauty of Australia's South Coast in a bottle.
' Pacific Rock Flower is a love letter to the coastline,' says founder Dimitri Weber. 'It's luminous, expressive and distinctly Australian.'
With a hefty 25 per cent perfume concentration, the Eau de Parfum is powerful, long-wearing and designed to shine all year round.
Made in collaboration with master perfumer Emilie Bouge in Grasse, France, this unisex scent blends French perfume artistry with native Australian ingredients, and the result is nothing short of magic.
But if you're new to the world of Goldfield & Banks, don't stop at just one.

How a cocktail server became Australia's No.1 pickleball player
After a long shift as the beverage manager at Magic Mike Live, Lara Giltinan leaves the Sahara Hotel and Casino. She takes the freeway to avoid the limousines and parties on the strip, reaching her home in south-west Las Vegas by 3am. By midday, the 39-year-old is at an indoor pickleball facility with just a few hours to play and train before clocking in for another shift at Magic Mike. Although she doesn't have a coach, has played for only 10 months and competes against full-time athletes, Giltinan is the highest-ranked Australian on the Professional Pickleball Association Tour. 'I just love going out there and being able to compete with the best girls in the world, knowing I don't train anywhere near as much as that, but it's a shame because I think, 'gosh, if I was just, you know seven years younger or something, this could be great',' she said. Greatness is something Giltinan once thought was within her grasp in a different sport. While her life in Las Vegas is a far cry from her childhood in the northern beaches suburb of Manly, being on the PPA tour has similarities to her teenage years, which were spent competing for trophies on the ITF junior tennis world tour. The daughter of Davis Cup champion Bob Giltinan, Lara played in the Australian Open and Wimbledon junior championships, among other tournaments. That led her to travel across the world and play against the likes of future world No.1s Ana Ivanovic and Caroline Wozniacki. But at 18, during a Challenger event in South Australia, Giltinan leant over to pick up a tennis ball and felt a twinge in her lower back. That twinge was a bulging disc, which, exacerbated by her scoliosis, began a series of injuries, ending her competitive tennis career. 'It was awful because that was my whole life and everything that I knew,' she said. 'It was pretty depressing to be honest because ... life as you know, it just kind of stops.' For a few years, Giltinan remained in the sport, working as Tennis NSW's tournaments and operations manager. In 2013, she planned a brief hiatus to traverse the US with some friends. Making the same pilgrimage as many others, Giltinan stopped in Las Vegas and was drawn to the lifestyle of being a poolside, bikini-clad, cocktail server. She inquired about a job, planned to stay for a year, but never left, leaving tennis behind her.

West Aussies have lost $30 million to celebrity and cryptocurrency scams since 2024
Imagine your entire superannuation and life savings vanishing in one day — all because of one convincing video from social media. West Australians are increasingly being duped by celebrity and crypto cons, resulting in millions of dollars being stolen. New research by WA ScamNet revealed that almost 50 WA residents have fallen victim to investment scams in 2025, resulting in $10.8 million being stolen. In 2024 alone, 76 WA victims reported handing over nearly $19.4 million to scammers and their schemes. One victim was reported to have lost an astonishing $10 million after being lured in by a 'deepfake' online celebrity endorsement video. Deepfakes are lifelike impersonations of real people, oftentimes celebrities, created by artificial intelligence. Australian Competition and Consumer Commission deputy chair Catriona Lowe said that the WA victim was just one of many Aussies falling for the scams. 'We know of an Australian man who lost $80,000 after seeing a deepfake Elon Musk video interview on social media, clicking the link and registering his details through an online form,' Ms Lowe said. Celebrity deepfake scams have exploded globally with the rise of AI, with one highly notable incident in January resulting in a French woman revealing that she had lost $1.3 million to 'actor Brad Pitt' — except it wasn't him, it was a scammer using deepfake images. Consumer Protection commissioner Trish Blake said that scammers were getting better at using celebrity images to dupe vulnerable individuals. 'The use of celebrity images, increasingly in deepfake videos, to endorse investment schemes is a deliberate tactic by scammers to fabricate legitimacy and entice victims with promises of rapid wealth,' she said. 'Being told to deposit more money to access your funds, citing taxes or other fees is a major red flag of an investment scam, so too are pressure tactics like being told your account will be frozen if you don't invest more.' Another investment scam causing distress in 2024 and 2025 were fake cryptocurrency trading, with victims believing they were investing in 'low-risk, high-return' schemes. WA ScamNet observed a rise in scammers infiltrating legitimate platforms to sell fraudulent cryptocurrency coins or 'mystery coins' that drain wallets of legitimate currency. 'Crypto scammers thrive on market complexity, using confusion and fake 'insider knowledge' to trick you,' Ms Blake said. 'They call their victims regularly, offering to set up their trading profiles to gain access to devices, while manipulating them into handing over their superannuation to invest.' Consumer Protections WA urges Aussies interested in cryptocurrency to conduct thorough research, read websites critically and be suspicious of promises that sound too good to be true. Ms Blake warned that people who have fallen victim to scams previously were at higher risk of scammers returning for a second attempt. 'After falling victim to an investment scam, many are again approached by so-called 'recovery experts', claiming they can retrieve lost funds,' she said. 'These follow-up scams prey on hope and desperation and can lead to even greater losses.' Further information about scams and where to report them can be found on the WA ScamNet website .
