D.S. & Durga Debaser In Bloom is a novel eau de parfum that plays with an unconventional, nostalgic cassette tape note.

David, one half of the husband-and-wife team behind D.S. & Durga, notes, "[In my preteen years,] tapes smelled distinctly of grapey-orange blossom due to a mysterious mixture of polyester, magnetics, and lubricants from which they were manufactured." Debaser In Bloom amplifies the nostalgic essence of cassette tapes with fruit and flower notes. A bright, herbaceous opening of white currant and rosemary flower gives way to a lush, creamy heart where ripe fig and gardenia bloom. The dry-down of Debaser In Bloom settles into soft musk and coconut husk grounded by the green, slightly tart whisper of raspberry leaf.
