What's New in Pacific Rock Swell
The Pacific Collection launched with Pacific Rock Moss in 2020, and Pacific Rock Flower followed in 2024. The 2026 release is the most concentrated version in the line so far.
Swell is a 30% extrait de parfum. According to the brand, it is meant to feel deeper and more immersive than a typical fresh aquatic. Goldfield & Banks describes it as "Marine & Captivating". The brand says it is meant to capture the moment before a wave breaks, "when the tide gathers power, the air thick with salt and the ocean begins to rise." The scent was created by perfumer Leonardo Lucheze of Takasago, with Dimitri Weber as artistic director.
The bottle keeps the Pacific family look: deep navy-to-teal gradient glass topped with a wooden cap.
The Notes: Sunrise, Summit & Sunset
Goldfield & Banks organises its pyramid like a day by the coast:
- Sunrise (top): bergamot, cardamom and clary sage, which the brand presents as a crisp, citrusy, lightly spiced opening.
- Summit (heart): seaweed, which according to the brand adds a darker, more textural depth. It is supported by clary sage absolute, geranium, mimosa, fir balsam and labdanum.
- Sunset (base): Madagascan ylang-ylang, patchouli, Australian sandalwood and ambergris.
According to Goldfield & Banks, the composition moves from brightness into something more grounded and expansive. The brand compares this to sunlight filtering through water and touching the ocean floor. The brand says the drydown settles into a warm, mineral trail that stays close to the skin, feeling both diffusive and intimate.
How to Wear It
- Start light. At extrait strength (30%), a couple of sprays is a sensible place to begin.
- Test before buying a full bottle. The 10ml travel spray allows wearing it over several days before committing to a larger size.
