Debauchee (4)

I think it could be either:

rake

roue

'debauchee' is the definition.
(I know that roue is a type of debauchee)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for roue that I've seen before include "A French rake, dissolute man" , "Elderly debauched man" , "Dissipated man" , "Lecherous man" , "A dissolute elderly man in France" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Guardian and The Sun.
