contents The distribution of dark matter (DM) halo around supermassive black holes (BHs) may leave observable imprints on stellar dynamics near galactic centers. Motivated by this, we investigate the orbital motion of the S2 star in the spacetime of a recently derived generalized Schwarzschild BH solution embedded in a Dehnen-type $(1,4,γ)$ DM halo, considering it as a possible model for Sgr A$^{\star}$ at the center of the Milky Way. Unlike previous studies restricted to specific values of the halo parameter $γ$, the present solution describes the fully generalized case with arbitrary $γ$. We derive the corresponding equations of motion and obtain the associated perihelion shift over one orbital period. Using observational data of the S2 star, we constrain the parameters of the Schwarzschild--Dehnen BH-DM system through a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) analysis. Our results yield the best-fit values $γ= 1.18^{+1.03}_{-0.81}$ $(1.23^{+1.01}_{-0.85})$, $ρ_s = 0.37^{+0.42}_{-0.29}$ $(0.31^{+0.44}_{-0.26})$, and $r_s = 0.05^{+0.05}_{-0.03}$ $(0.14^{+0.18}_{-0.10})$ for observational data of Do et al.~\cite{Do19} and Gillessen et al.~\cite{Gillessen17ApJ}, respectively. We further obtain the corresponding 95\% confidence upper bounds: $γ< 2.66$ $(2.67)$, $ρ_s < 0.93$ $(0.92)$, and $r_s < 0.16$ $(0.52)$. These results demonstrate that precise stellar orbit measurements can provide meaningful constraints on the DM halo distributions surrounding supermassive BHs and may offer insights into the DM environment of Sgr A$^{\star}$ at the center of the Milky Way.
