Debut
Eau de Parfum
by Parfums DelRae



The Scoop
Graceful, poised, elegantly youthful, Debut is a vision of refined femininity. The brisk citrus top notes of lime and bergamot pave the way for the cool floral heart of ethereal lily of the valley and airy linden blossom, the spring-like freshness of which is accentuated by the presence of green accord, green like new leaves and young spring grass. That exquisite coldness of the middle notes is balanced by the warm, creamy ylang-ylang, which prevents the scent from ever becoming sharp. The note is like a promise of hot summer on a sunny, breezy, fragrant spring day. The base of Debut is an elegant affair of slightly earthy vetiver, soft woods and musk. Masterfully understated, harmonious, classically proportioned, Debut is sophisticated and eminently loveable.

When I opened the sample, the bergamot and lime were almost photographically clear, but the instant it touched skin the scent moved to more floral territory. Worn too strongly this could easily be headache inducing, but with a light application the bitter green aspect keeps the forceful floral heart in check.

Green leaves and lime are very sharp in the beginning which fades somewhat to open the florals. Overall it was very good. I think floral lovers would like it.

This starts off as sharp, green & masculine, with a little lime & cut grass, almost bitter, but after about 20 mins it becomes more floral, with lily of the valley & something like lilac, is that the linden blossom? Then the earthiness of the vetiver becomes apparent & it seems more masculine again. It's very well structured, modern, sophisticated & long lasting, I just wish those middle notes lasted longer.

Hmmm ... I love the smell of linden, so I really thought I'd like this. To me, though, it smells fundamentally artificial -- almost a bit "plastic"-smelling. I am not sure why. Maybe it's the green note? Either way, I am not thrilled, particularly because I think Lutens' Fleur de Citronnier accomplishes almost exactly the same thing as this perfume with much more grace and subtlety.

This is great- lily of the valley. I love the staying power that this line has. I love the whole line of Delrae perfumes! Why can't they produce smaller quantities? I can't afford a bottle of this. I like Fredric Malle's idea- 10 ml size vials. I love "Debut", but if I'd buy a bottle of a Delrae perfume, it'd be Ammourose. These two are so similar. What would be fantastic is a trio of 3 of the Delrae's to equal 50 ml's. DelRae needs a better marketing manager.

This is a beautiful scent. It is like Spring given way to glorious Summer. Debut starts with the fresh green sweetness of lily of the valley and while never losing this initial impression, summery linden and a fresh green note join in. The overall effect is beautiful, youthful, fresh and summery. Reminiscent of Diorissimo, Debut is a more modern, layered take on lily of the valley. I can't imagine anyone disliking.

Got to agree with other posts here. I adore Michel Roudnitska's other olfactory creations for this house but Debut is just a plain old girly lily-of-the-valley that smells like it should be worn by debutantes in fluffy pink ballgowns.

This was a scrubber for me. Somehow its honeyed sweetness was really disturbing, so do sample first. I loved Bois de Paradis.

I bought this unsniffed because I love Bois de Paradis and assumed that Parfums Delrae could do no wrong. I intensely dislike Debut. It smells like an updated Chanel No. 5 to me and personally, I'm not a fan of Chanel No. 5.

Sophisticated, rich, a little complex. Self-assured, but not over-stated. After a few hours, an incence-like warmth lingers on. Good for special occations. Don't think anyone would dislike it.

This is my least favorite of the DelRae fragrances because it smells Estee Lauder-flowery and common on me.
