The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Dahlia Divin Black Ball Limited Edition by Givenchy was launched in 2015, created by François Demachy to celebrate the brand's commitment to elegance and sophistication. The fragrance opens with a burst of mirabelle plum, which blends seamlessly into a heart of white flowers and jasmine, creating an intense sweet floral-fruity bouquet. The base notes of sandalwood, vetiver, and patchouli add warmth and depth, grounding the composition in woody richness. This limited edition was released in collaboration with Alicia Keys to support her charity Keep a Child Alive, which fights against AIDS.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a long-lasting effect — the mirabelle plum top note is bright but fades quickly into the deeper notes. The woody base ensures it stays close to skin rather than projecting widely, making it perfect for more reserved settings.

François Demachy

Dior's guardian of dreams

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.

“Early on, I memorised a whole host of notes without even realising it. I could recognise moss and flowers. My nose educated itself.”
