Dahlia Noir

Dahlia Noir, a Mysterious Powdery Floral

Dahlia Noir was Givenchy’s dark, elegant floral. Our version keeps that feel, opening with mandarin and pink pepper before a rose, mimosa, and iris heart settles over patchouli, tonka bean, vanilla, and sandalwood.

The Story Behind the Scent

Givenchy built Dahlia Noir around the idea of the black dahlia, a flower that does not exist in nature. The idea was mysterious elegance, powdery and refined with a dark edge.

That refined mystery is its appeal. The mandarin keeps it bright, the powdery flowers make it elegant, and the patchouli and tonka give it depth. Since it was discontinued, fans have missed it. Our interpretation keeps it available.
