The new version of fragrance Dahlia Noir EDT has been launched in 2012 adding up to last year’s editione Dahlia Noir Eau de Parfum. Creators of the house of Givenchy provided the new flacon with feminine and gentle pink shades, while the compsoition is built as a floral-fruity mixture, supported with precious woody accords. Perfumer of the enw edition is Francois Demachy.

Demachy gives the new version Dahlia Noir Eau de Toilette a juicy and luminous start in which fresh and citrusy aromas of mandarin and lemon intertwine skillfully with thick and sweet peach zest. This extremely fruity opening leaves more space for a floral bouquet in the heart of the perfume, the fragrant petals of which make the flirtatious pink cocktail more playful. A base incorporates creamy and soft shades of sandalwood and vanilla, accompanied with warm amber and cedar.

Flacon of the new edition is shaped just like the one of last year's edition Dahlia Noir EDP, and is available as 50 and 75ml EDT. Transparent glass of this geometric-shape bottle highlights pink liquid of the fragrance that goes along perfectly with a stopper in the same shade and with the romantic composition of the perfume. On the market since the beginning of February 2012!

This is very different from the EDP. I mean, they do have things in common, but the scent is quite different. I love the EDP, from any viewpoint, but am not impressed by the EDT. The scent does not please me that much, by far, and it is too weak. The EDT is much fuitier, and it has much less vanilla and less pink pepper, taking a longtime for this last note to be actually noticeable. I would consider the EDt a fruity floral. I do not understand why they made this EDT different from such a nice fragrance, given the fact that the EDP was created and marketed first. Well, taste is a personal thing, that is the reason.

I had wanted to try the EDP of this, but they didn't have a sample in the store, so after looking it up on fragrantica, and seeing that although the notes were different between the EDP and EDT people seemed to feel that they smelled very similar, I decided to try the EDT. Unfortunately, all I got was cedar, which is a problem I have with my body chemistry. I will frequently bring out the woodsy notes in perfume, which in some cases can be a good thing, and in this case, a very bad thing. I'm still very interested in trying the EDP, as it doesn't contain any cedar, and hopefully I'll get to experience the beauty that I should have experienced with this. Darn body chemistry!

Dahlia Noir? Dahlia NO! I don't understand anything about this fragrance. Girly pink juice in a very blocky masculine bottle. A very light, fluffy concoction with zero 'noir' going on at all. And more than anything, to me, it just doesn't smell good. I put it on in the a.m., went to work and actively disliked it all day! There is a sharpness about it that I found very unappealing. It's one redeeming quality, it did stick all day, but in this case that was not a plus. In sum, 'REALLY Givenchy?'

Citrus zest and fruity floral at its best! Seriously, I have no idea why it's named Dahlia Noir, (and I don't care!) You could simply detect the peach in the beginning, then the other notes start to surface, especially rose and pink pepper, impeccably well mixed, making it so subtle and damn seductive! Also, the amber-vanilla blends along with woody notes making this perfume speaks elegance and refinement.

With this fragrance, you could go carefree and playful, or even outrageous yet be ultra-alluring at the same time thanks to the bright citrus, peach-rosy notes along with the carnal blend of amber, vanilla and sandalwood.

Lasting power is good with moderate silage. (Hey, who would want to allure and charm everybody in the room anyway!) Cheers!

# looking forward to having the EDP.

I like the EDT a lot more than I like the EDP.
I like the way the EDT mixes with the smell of my skin, the result somehow reminds me of a tea house that I go to occasionally. It's quite classy, a little sweet, with a hint of freshness. Not pinkish, girly, or in any way typical.

Sadly, the EDT does not have a great silage so I still haven't decided what to choose between EDP and EDT. What I don't like about the EDP is that it's too pinkish. I might stick with the EDT eventually, but I still think the EDP is more worth buying.

I'm on the fence about this one. I first tried it and loved it when snuggling with my fiance - I thought it was so sophisticated and romantic. But trying it today, it doesn't seem as special. I reminds me of clementines, so I think of Christmas, and I love that fruit is the main part of this with a silky rose undertone. It does make you feel lady like, but maybe a little boring? I'm not sure I if I want to purchase this, but if anyone has a bottle of this that they don't want, I might be willing to swap something for one. :) I do like this, but not so sure I love it.

An artful blending of all the listed notes. Like a sweet floral kiss of fragrance. Gently nudges you with a creamy woody floral blend that does the Givenchy name justice without being over-the-top. Cedar is usually overbearing but is only hinted at here giving only a nod as it recedes to the outer edges of this wonderful concoction.

The citrus note I detect reminds me of a less bubbly version of Pomme d'Or by Evody lightly tempered with the pink pepper and musk. The only note that alludes me is the rose.

Light and unobtrusive it is well suited for office use; so light I fear it won't last long. The delight is in having more to reapply. The opening notes are this side of heaven in a bottle.

I was quit excited to try this, but now I'm wondering why. I received a sample and its well.. incredibly boring and not worthy of its name. There is absolutely nothing "noir" about this. It dies down quick, and reminds me of an older Givenchy scent Amarige. There is nothing really original about this scent, but its far from offensive just slightly dated.. somthing you would expect grandma to wear.

Pretty and.....boring. Smells like a hundred other light pink perfumes. I very much enjoyed the EDP and felt it had something a little unique going on with it. Coming off the EDP this is a big disappointment to me and there really is nothing noir about it.

I LOVE it! My new signature fragrance! I smell rose combined with a peachy/nectarine aroma on first spray, then it dries down to a powdery sweetness. It has undertones of spicy woodiness that add an element of mystery and depth to the innocent and romantic fragrance...and make it complicated enough to match any mood. It's light, fresh, and cheers me up whenever I wear it! This is the fragrance that I've spent years searching for! :)

I received a sample of the EDT and the EDP when I was purchasing a different fragrance. I have been obsessed with this to the point that I went back the following week and purchased the large bottle of the EDT. It is not a scandalously erotic fragrance as the lusty commercial would have you believe, this is a quiet, feminine, polite fragrance that says 'lady' which I like.
With my body chemistry, I get a lot of floral with this and little to no fruit. I do find myself being heavy handed with the EDT, first because it isn't one of those screamer fragrances and second because I really like it. The EDP smells very different from the EDT, it isn't much stronger - but the earthiness is far more perceptible in the EDP.
Some might call it a ho-hum pink floral, but I really like it.

I couldn't wait to receive my bottle of Dahlia Noir 30ml in the post & finally it arrived. It's really soft i have to say, ideal for spring in the new year. Love the freshness and light floral of this perfume & it's beautiful, the rose stands out at the start. On the dry down the sweetness element along with it's innocence comes through just so easy to wear which is a delight.

Wearing this today since I had a large sample. It's nice, lite and airy. Would be a good summer/spring scent if you're looking for something basic and unremarkable. Safe to wear to the office. Sweet and flowery. Sadly, nothing special.

I just didn't take to it, I guess I expected a more complex scent, it does have a bright juicy opening, which I like, but gets weak in the base, too soft for my taste . So it falls a bit short as far as I am concerned. Givenchy is coming out with lots of fragrances, some good, some mediocre.
EDP is more interesting, yet not on my list. Dahlia EDT is soft, feminine, pleasant yet leaves me cold.

To my nose this is barely distinguishable from Versace's Bright Crystal which was released in 2006. Dahlia Noir EDT is citrusy, fruity, and indistinctly floral with an Iso E Super base. There's nothing wrong with it, its quite pleasant, just not unique. It certainly won't offend anyone. I guess I might have been more interested in 2006.

What is the point of even pretending that Givenchy is an independent perfume house, when under the management of LVMH, the perfumer is one and the same as that of Christian Dior? Everything seems to be merging in a race to the bottom to a single and solitary layer of mediocrity. DAHLIA NOIR eau de toilette is a prime example.

This is another "pink" fragrance among hundreds, about as trivial as they come. And what a waste of a name! I have not tried the eau de parfum, but I can only hope that this latest launch is indeed a desecration of its namesake. I suspect that it is not.

After a brief abstract fruity-floral opening with no identifiable flowers or fruits and a dilute sugar solution-type sweetness, DAHLIA NOIR steps in line with all of the other scents now in existence--in both the men's and the women's category--which feature a boring base of iso-E-super and ambroxan. I've smelled this so many times that by now I can only say that I'm suffering from serious pseudo woody-amber aromachemical base fatigue. This is not cedar. This is not amber. This is THAT stuff sold in vats evidently for a pittance. This may fool many consumers most of the time, but anyone who has smelled ambergris and cedar can only sigh in confronting this same old solvent over and over again.

Why do I suspect that the dominant and all-too-familiar aromachemical base (iso-E-super + ambroxan) featured in DAHLIA NOIR eau de toilette is produced by a company also owned by LVMH? By the drydown, this is not even an artificial smelling fruity-floral. It's just that base.

This is what i call a answer for a prohibited place.a love poetry from a homlesss flowers.a magnificent bottle with a peace message for a captian...one of the givenchy new better fragrances since ange ou demon and amarige marriage....
A very clean and powdery fragrance with hint of flowers and tears of roses...the special convination of the beautiful vanilla...the kiss of the orange and the rouch of a agresive peachess.....

Tried it on today at Ülta; it was OK, kind of fruity but a little different smell from the other stuff I had tested today....the newest EsteeLauder Private Collection and that Dot (by same person who makes Daisy) and Nicole by Nicole Ritchie.
They were all on different places on my arms.
The only one that I kept sniffing on my drive home was the Givenchy Dahlia Noir EDT.
It is fascinating because it dries down to soft woods and no more fruity!
It has a unique, not-everyday smell to it and that is so desirable to me since I do not want to smell like all the other ladies.
It has been 6 hours since i sprayed this on my arm and it is still there and i'm still sniffing!
Yes, I shall buy this. It is $48 for 1 ounce.
It is super to find a fragrance that actually lasts on my skin more than 4 hours.
I'm loving it!

I just smelled it in a magazine, and WOW. It smells just like a Christmas tree, weird as that sounds. But I definitely smell fresh fir trees for some reason. Kind of weird in a perfume, but I actually kind of love it. It reminds me of my house at Christmastime. I don't know how it would smell if it was actually on me, but it's pretty awesome on paper.

Guess I'm the only one on here who was blown away by this scent...but not in a good way! First whiff and whoa...smell of disenfectant just about blew my nose off! All I get is pepper and cedar, that's it. Not for me.

The parfum is a bit better..more powdery and less cleaner-like.

It's not a bad perfume but not anything that makes you go WOW! It is very run of the mill and .....boring! To me it smells like a light flowery baby powder perfume. It certainly doesn't make me feel like I have to have this perfume but would be Ok to wear when you just want to have a hint of fragrance on. I definitely wouldn't class it is fruity at all. Shame I am not impressed with this as I normally like Givenchy perfumes but unfortunately this one isn't on my must have list

I got a tester at the perfumeshop.
I rubbed it on my wrists and neck. And...
OH MY!
I adore this! So tender and soft!!!
I couldn't smell it on me but as i went out to walk my dog, late at night and the weather was a tenderly windy... and as i changed my direction... there it was!
Beautiful and comforting like the softest velvet.
I want this!
I hope i'll get it for my birthday....
That way it would be even more sweeter.

Ps. And I did got it for my birthday! Lovely!

Dahlia Noir Edt has a bright citrus opening that tones down to a soft spicy musky scent that smells delicious and a little pinch of seduction, after a few hours it turns into a soft sweet woody scent. This stays really close to the skin and is good for everyday wear. So far it doesnt stand out to me as much I was hoping it would if the spicy musk part of the scent stuck around longer I would be in love with it. I got this at the Nordstroms anniversary sale and its great for the price I paid. This is also what I would consider my most mature scent right now, but can be worn by anyone whose in their 20s and up.

If you like scents such as Versace Bright Crystal or Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, you will most likely enjoy this one. As another reviewer stated, it smells grapefruity. It's very light and bright- perfect for sunny days. It wears pretty close to the skin, but the scent has lasted for 6+ hours on me. I do believe it should have been called dahlia le jour instead of dahlia noir, though.

Would I rush out to buy a bottle? No! To my nose it isn't very unique. Would I wear it if I received it as a gift? Yes!

Tested this last week. It is very nice although I hardly can see how it is related to last years EDP. The peach very much stands out when first applied and over all it has a sweeter yet almost dusty fragrance. The dry down is very creamy and sweet with vanilla, amber and sandalwood. I do wish that I could smell a bit more of the cedar and I feel that maybe if they would have kept the mimosa or the iris I might have felt like this EDT was actually related to the EDP. Still, a very nice fragrance but I must say I do prefer 2011 Dahlia Noir EDP.
