Bela dalija

Faintly green, barely floral, with a cool waxy quality. Dahlia flowers are olfactory underperformers — bred for visual spectacle, not scent.

U parfemima
White dahlia is a fantasy-floral heart note, always reconstructed. Built from clean-green materials, cool-waxy petals notes, and faint floral accords. Functions as a quiet, understated floral in minimalist and green compositions. Its near-scentlessness makes it useful as a concept rather than a dominant note — representing the idea of a flower that is seen more than smelled.
