Description

A blend of the brand’s cult fig fragrance with gardenia, cream, cassette tape and whitecurrant.

“Debaser is a cult favourite from D.S. & DURGA, inspired by my early teenage years spent with cool older kids. Music connected us. They introduced me to many bands, but the Pixies were untouchable. I remember getting Doolittle on cassette. The tapes had a distinctive grape and orange-blossom smell from the mysterious blend of polyester, magnetic materials and lubricants used to make them. You would buy the newest cassette at the local record shop and race home on your skateboard to listen. Tearing open the wrapping released that familiar scent — an unconscious announcement of new music.

Playing with a perfume formula is like reworking a beloved song. New elements emerge, and this version of Debaser draws beauty from everyday life. The nostalgic scent of cassette tape is amplified by carefully selected fruit and floral notes. It is easy to wear and gives a perfect spring-summer vibe, much like the music that inspired it.” — D.S.
