Goldfield & Banks

It is priced at $280 for 100ml and $54 for 10ml, available at Sephora.

Fiddler On The Roof

Screen legend John Waters and TV darling Sigrid Thornton join the cast of this multi award-winning production, coming to Perth in January.

The production offers a contemporary take on the classic that follows Tevye and his five headstrong daughters. More tickets and details available at fiddlerontherooftour.com.
