Green Grass Clippings with a Big Splash of Lime
DelRae Perfume DEBUT occupies a tiny plot of sparsely inhabited olfactory space along with oddball neighbors VENT VERT, MA GRIFFE, FUTUR, and BE LEAF (a discontinued TBS frag--it was no doubt just too odd for their clientele...).

This plot of freshly cut grass is about as green as green gets. More measured floral greens seem like chypres next to the inhabitants of this übergreen little quartier. DEBUT, like its neighbors, wears very much like a grass stain.

Imagine having spent the afternoon mowing the lawn as cut grass spattered all over the place, including on your pristine white capris. Now they are tinged green and you smell green and you're hot and tired and thirsty so you reach for something cool and refreshing in your fridge, and what you find is a big pitcher of tart limeade.

This is DEBUT. More citrusy than any of its neighbors; less dark than FUTUR; less funky and soapy than MA GRIFFE; and devoid of the sticks and twigs chewed up by the lawnmower in VENT VERT. DEBUT is green grass clippings with a big splash of lime.
