Goldfield & Banks Founder Dimitri Weber on Fragrance and Making Australia His Muse

What happens when a French fragrance expert falls in love with the wild, rich beauty of Australia? You get Goldfield & Banks — the luxury scent house making waves around the globe.

In this heartfelt and intimate conversation, Dimitri Weber, founder of Goldfield & Banks, sits down with Sigourney Cantelo to reflect on the deeply personal experiences that shaped his life and business — from his early trauma of being sent to boarding school, to the heartbreak of a long-term relationship ending. He opens up about therapy, perfectionism, and why scent became his most powerful storytelling tool.

Dimitri also shares the surprising moment he realised Australian fragrance didn’t yet exist in department stores, and how that sparked the idea to create something truly unique — a perfume house grounded in botanicals, emotion and memory.

This episode is filled with poetic insight, raw honesty and timeless inspiration for anyone navigating change, heartbreak, or the pursuit of passion.

In this episode, Dimitri shares:

- The breakup that changed everything
- The moment he realised Australian perfumery didn’t exist — and set out to change that
- Why native botanicals and storytelling are central to Goldfield & Banks
- How therapy helped him heal childhood abandonment wounds
- His thoughts on success, workaholism and finding stillness in solitude
