The Story

Dahlia Noir Le Bal Eau de Parfum, launched by Givenchy in 2013 and crafted by François Demachy, is a Chypre Floral fragrance that embodies the brand's signature blend of French elegance and American glamour. The composition opens with bright citrus notes that give way to a heart of rose and iris, creating an interplay between freshness and depth. The base notes of vanilla and woody accords lend warmth and a powdery comfort, making it a scent that feels both classic and contemporary.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a warm presence that lingers throughout the day. The powdery florals are best experienced close to skin rather than diffused into the air, so avoid over-spraying and let it settle before leaving.

François Demachy portrait
I grew up in Grasse. The raw materials of perfumery are my mother tongue.

François Demachy is the in-house perfumer-creator at Christian Dior, a title that places him among the most influential noses in the world. Born in Cannes and raised in Grasse — the historic capital of perfumery — he carries the craft in his blood. Before joining Dior in 2006, he spent two decades at Chanel. At Dior, Demachy has reimagined the house's olfactory heritage while pushing it forward, creating Sauvage (now the world's best-selling men's fragrance), Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet, and the prestigious La Collection Privée series.

The story behind the bottle.

The cozy ambiance of an afternoon in a well-appointed living room, where soft floral notes mix with the warmth of wooden furniture and a hint of vanilla.
