Launched in 2011, Dahlia Noir by Givenchy is a refined floral-chypre fragrance crafted by François Demachy. Despite its name, it isn’t dark or heavy—it’s a soft, powdery floral built around notes of rose, iris, mimosa, supported by a warm base of patchouli, sandalwood, tonka bean, vanilla, and oakmoss. The result is an elegant, feminine scent evoking subtle mystery and timeless polish.
