Givenchy Dahlia Divin Eau Initiale: Floral Symphony of 2018

Imagine a fragrance that from the first spray transports you to the world of Parisian elegance – this is Givenchy Dahlia Divin Eau Initiale, released in 2018 as part of the Dahlia Divin collection.

This Eau de Toilette embodies delicate femininity and belongs to the Floral family, promising an unforgettable journey from a refreshing start to a warm base.

The Elegance of Givenchy in Every Chord

Givenchy is not just a name on the bottle; it is a synonym for Parisian elegance embodied in fragrance.

Founded by the aristocratic spirit Hubert de Givenchy in 1952 as a fashion house, the brand revolutionized the world of perfumery within a few years, and Dahlia Divin Eau Initiale continues this tradition, offering a modern take on a classic floral composition with light citrus and musky accents.

Who This Fragrance is For

This Women's fragrance is perfect for confident girls and women who appreciate sophistication and lightness.

With a Medium sillage, it is not intrusive but leaves a noticeable trail, ideal for everyday wear, the office, or romantic dates.

Thanks to its floral base with notes of Citrus and Woody, it is especially good in spring and summer, adding freshness and tenderness to any look, and also pairs beautifully with evening attire for special occasions.

How to Apply for Perfect Results

To enjoy the full richness of the fragrance, we recommend 2 to 3 sprays on the skin for a lasting note development, and 1 to 2 sprays on clothing for a longer effect.

As an eau de toilette, it offers a refreshing lightness that combines beautifully with warm skin, gradually developing throughout the day, and does not overwhelm in hot weather, making it a versatile choice for different scenarios.

Description of the composition

Note Pyramid: From a Citrus Start to a Musky Base

The composition of Givenchy Dahlia Divin Eau Initiale begins with a refreshing note of Bergamot and juicy Red Orange, which provide instant energy and fruity freshness, perfectly setting the tone for a warm day.

In the heart of the fragrance, a rich bouquet of delicate flowers unfolds: Jasmine adds sensuality and depth, Lotus brings aquatic coolness and purity, Magnolia offers creamy softness and elegance, and Rose completes this floral ensemble with a note of classic femininity, creating a multifaceted heart.

The base is enveloped in the warmth of Sandalwood, which adds woody stability and coziness, and Musk, providing a long-lasting and gentle foundation, harmoniously combined with the groups of Citrus, Floral, Musky, White Flowers, and Woody notes, making the development smooth and memorable from the first to the last note.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth

Divin Eau Initiale - this is a fragrance that can truly be called tender and soft. It embodies femininity, and the white bottle perfectly emphasizes this. Magnolia, this beautiful flower, becomes the central note. Creamy magnolia sounds simply magnificent, especially in combination with lotus, rose petals, citruses, and musk. This fragrance gives confidence and a feeling of lightness, creating an atmosphere of optimism around you

Overall, the fragrance isn't bad, but the lotus, as always, ruined everything. Magnolia and musk are pleasing, but I really don't like this lotus. Unfortunately, not for me

What a wonderful lotus! Its simplicity and familiarity blend so harmoniously with the magical musk and magnolia. The fragrance is simply excellent: fresh, floral, and long-lasting. A real delight! 🌸

Now this fragrance has become one of my favorites. A sample I stumbled upon turned out to be a real find. The first impressions weren't the most positive, but it was worth waiting a bit and listening. It's surprisingly delicate, with floral-creamy accents, light and airy. True femininity in every note
5/5

What a cool fragrance! It's so light and airy, with a pleasant sweetness and a slight bitterness. The flowers are fresh, the citruses are delightful, and the herbal notes add interest. I really liked it, simply elegant! 🌸
5/5

The fragrance is truly sensual. Its sillage isn't too strong, but it creates a light floral-musky cloud that's only noticeable upon close skin contact. Personally, I think this version of Dahlia Divin is the softest and most delicate in the entire collection 🌸
4/5

This fragrance reminds me of some cheap cosmetics that leave no impression whatsoever. Flowers and powder, plus lightness - that's all nonsense. The musk here is so screechy, like an old door. Nothing special, just to not stink. For everyday? Who needs that when you can choose something more interesting? 🤷‍♀️
4/5

The fragrance is truly delightful, a little sweetish, with creamy floral notes. It smells very gentle, and the longevity is good, but not too intrusive!!!
3/5
3
The fragrance is truly impressive; it's soft, yet at the same time has a distinct character. It's not like ordinary sweet scents; with it, you feel confident and stylish. It's best suited for the cold season, autumn and winter are its time. I wear it for special occasions or when I want to lift my spirits. It's very important not to get a fake, otherwise you might be disappointed
4/5

This fragrance is really not simple. It's not so easy to grasp. On one hand, it's quite decent, doesn't cause rejection. But the brand itself, honestly, doesn't spark any interest. It doesn't hook me at all. And, in my opinion, this perfume probably won't suit everyone 😔
4/5

This fragrance from the Dahlia Divin collection isn't as sweet as the others. Magnolia and jasmine are distinctly noticeable, along with light hints of rose. Citrus accents at the start quickly give way to floral brightness, and sandalwood adds a pleasant creamy note
5/5
5
With November and December approaching, I got a craving to try a fragrance with cashmere notes. I want it to be warm, cozy, and enveloping, like a soft blanket, while still retaining its femininity. This perfume completely meets my expectations! The bottle is simply gorgeous, it embodies tenderness and elegance!!
5/5
5
The fragrance opens with a bright citrus cocktail, where bergamot and red orange create freshness. In the heart of the perfume, floral notes unfold: jasmine, lotus, and magnolia, complemented by spicy and sweet nuances of rose. The sillage of this scent is delicate and unobtrusive, gently transitioning into musky and woody notes, with a light creamy sandalwood. Overall, this combination creates a feeling of lightness and sophistication that uplifts the mood and inspires
4/5

This fragrance for daytime is simply delightful! It gives pleasant sensations when you wear it. Floral notes combined with musk create an amazingly subtle and unobtrusive scent. The longevity is also pleasing. This is truly something special! )
5/5

Today I accidentally tried this fragrance again, and it seems I'm starting to understand why many compare it to a cozy cashmere sweater. Maybe the weather played a role, or my preferences are changing, but now I want to get my hands on it too. It's simply amazing! A couple of years ago, I would have definitely said it wasn't for me
