Questions about Fragnatique.

An AI perfume advisor is an app that learns an individual's scent preferences, scores fragrances against that profile, and explains each recommendation instead of returning an unexplained list. Fragnatique is an AI perfume advisor of this kind: it builds the profile from a twelve-question quiz, an optional photo, and the fragrances a person already likes, then keeps refining the profile as more feedback arrives.

The Fragnatique match score is a personal compatibility percentage between one fragrance and one person. Every perfume in the database is decomposed into top, heart, and base notes plus a six-axis accord radar covering woody, fresh, sweet, earthy, fruity, and green. The match score compares that structure against a taste vector built from the twelve-question quiz, the fragrances you have liked or dismissed, and optional photo style analysis, then returns a percentage with a written paragraph naming the specific notes that drive it.

A perfume quiz produces a single snapshot and ends when the last question is answered. An advisor keeps working afterwards. Fragnatique updates the taste profile every time a fragrance is liked or dismissed, answers follow-up questions through its chatbot, picks a bottle from the wearer's own cabinet each day based on season, time of day, and weather, and writes the reasoning behind every recommendation so it can be judged rather than simply accepted.

A personal scent profile is a structured picture of which fragrance families someone gravitates towards, which materials keep reappearing in the things they love, and how those preferences balance against one another. Fragnatique draws yours as the ScentGraph, a map of twelve labelled systems with your own bottles placed among them and lines drawn between the systems you keep pairing, with a named scent persona underneath summing up the shape. It is not a result issued once: liking a ranked match, dismissing one, scanning a bottle on a shop shelf, or filing a fragrance in your Perfume Cabinet all redraw it, so the profile grows more accurate the longer the app is used and never has to be filled in a second time. The full explanation is at fragnatique.app/methodology.

Yes. The Your Journey screen in Fragnatique keeps every state the ScentGraph has passed through instead of overwriting the previous one. A maturity line traces how complete the map has become, and Recorded States lists dated snapshots, each carrying the scent persona that was true at the time, with the moments one persona gave way to another marked out. A reading that stood as The Luminary can later stand as The Firebrand, and the switch has a date attached to it. The whole profile also exports as a Scent Persona Dossier, a multi-page document carrying the persona, the bonds between your families, your recurring materials and ranked accords, and the fragrances the reading was drawn from.

Fragnatique is a free download on the App Store. The free tier includes the match score, photo and style analysis, the chatbot advisor, the Olfactory Atlas note explorer, and the journal. A premium subscription, billed through the App Store, unlocks the offline bottle scanner and the full Scent Lab with its manufacturing PDF export.

Fragnatique is an iOS app. There is no Android app and no Android release has been announced. The Fragnatique website and journal at fragnatique.app are readable in any modern browser on any device.

Photos submitted for style analysis in Fragnatique are processed in real time to generate a suggestion and are not stored by Appthos Studio OÜ. The app performs no facial recognition, does not identify the person in the image, and does not infer race or ethnic origin. The photo step is optional, requires explicit consent, and can be switched off at any time, and the scent profile, collection, and generated formulations are held locally on the device.

The Fragnatique iOS app is available in 28 languages, among them English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, Polish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Hindi, and Vietnamese.

Fragnatique covers designer and niche perfumery in depth. Houses in the database include Creed, Tom Ford, Maison Francis Kurkdjian, Byredo, Diptyque, Penhaligon's, Mancera, Initio, Le Labo, Parfums de Marly, Xerjoff, Amouage, Andrea Maack, and Hormone Paris, alongside mainstream releases and independent creators. Depth of niche coverage is usually the most reliable test of any AI perfume advisor.

Yes. The Scent Lab in Fragnatique is an AI-guided composer that carries a fragrance from first idea to finished formula in fourteen steps, asking about spirit, foundation, opening, heartbeat, texture, projection, and more. It returns a complete formula with ingredient ratios, a cost breakdown from batch to retail, a sensory and volatility profile, an allergen declaration, and a ninety-day aging prediction, exported as a five-page manufacturing PDF.

Every formula composed in the Fragnatique Scent Lab is checked against IFRA Amendment 51, published in 2023, which sets the usage limits the fragrance industry applies to restricted materials. The exported manufacturing PDF carries the allergen declaration and production safety notes alongside the recipe, so a perfumer or contract manufacturer can review it directly. Fragnatique provides the compliance check as guidance, and final responsibility for a commercial product rests with the manufacturer.

No. The fourteen steps ask about character, mood, and how strongly the scent should carry rather than about chemistry, and most people finish a first composition in a single sitting and refine it afterwards. What arrives at the end is technical enough for someone with training to work from, so you compose in plain language and still finish with a document a professional can read. Formulas composed in the Fragnatique Scent Lab belong to the person who made them.

Five pages. The recipe names every material the way a supplier lists it, with its INCI name, its CAS number where one exists, its supplier attribution, and its weight in grams for a one kilogram batch beside its share of the whole. Around the recipe sit the check against IFRA Amendment 51, an allergen declaration giving a concentration for each declarable substance, production instructions covering maceration and storage, a sensory and volatility profile, a ninety-day aging prediction, and a cost analysis running from batch cost through a filled 50ml bottle to a retail price. A perfumer or contract manufacturer can quote against the document exactly as it leaves the Fragnatique app.

Yes. The Fragnatique bottle scanner ships its fragrance database on the device, so pointing the camera at a bottle and reading its notes pyramid, accord radar, season, longevity, sillage, and your personal match score works without a network connection. Connectivity is needed only for image-heavy operations such as photo and style analysis.

Yes. Fragnatique includes a perfume scanner on iOS: frame a bottle in the camera and the app recognises the house and the release, with no outer box, barcode, or batch code needed and no need to know the name first. The result opens on the full note pyramid, a six-axis accord radar, a season read, an expected wear time, longevity and sillage bands, and a personal compatibility percentage with a written reason, and one tap files the bottle in the Perfume Cabinet. Camera frames are processed in real time and never stored. The scanner is a premium feature inside the otherwise free Fragnatique app.

Fragnatique says so rather than guessing. When a frame is too dark or too angled the app asks for another attempt, which resolves most misses, and when a fragrance is not in the library yet it can be looked up by name inside the app and scored against your profile in the same way. An honest uncertain answer is more useful than a confident wrong one, so the scanner is built to admit a miss.

Yes. The Perfume Cabinet in Fragnatique is a record of the bottles you personally own, filled either by scanning them or by finding them in the catalogue of designer, niche, and indie houses. Every bottle keeps its note pyramid, its fragrance families, the seasons and occasions it suits, and your own match score, and the cabinet then feeds a Scent Journal that logs each wear, a Daily Pick chosen from what is already on your shelf, and a Collection Analysis that maps the shape of your taste. The Perfume Cabinet and everything it feeds are part of the free Fragnatique app.

Yes. The Daily Pick in Fragnatique reads the season, the time of day, and the weather where you are, then names one bottle from the ones already in your Perfume Cabinet and writes a short case for it, naming the accords that suit the day, the notes carrying the composition, and the mood it lands in. It only ever puts forward fragrances you own, because its purpose is to get the bottles on your shelf onto your skin, including the ones you had forgotten. The Daily Pick is part of the free Fragnatique app.

The Collection Analysis in Fragnatique reads every bottle in your Perfume Cabinet at once and draws the result as a single picture: which accords dominate, which of the eight fragrance families you own several versions of, and which stretches of the map you have never gone near, with a share of the collection beside each one. That turns the next purchase into something that fills a real gap instead of a near twin of a bottle you already have.

The Scent Journal logs each wear of a fragrance with its longevity, sillage, mood, and setting, alongside anything you want to write down yourself, and the entries live inside your Perfume Cabinet. Weeks later it answers what memory cannot: which bottle you actually wore most, which one you bought and never touched, and how a fragrance behaved the last time the weather looked like this. Journal entries are written for you, and sharing a shelf is a deliberate action rather than something that happens by default.

Yes. Fragnatique reads one photo with vision-language AI and returns three written layers under a named style archetype: Your Style describes the aesthetic in the frame, its proportion, palette, texture, and contrast; Personality Insight reads what the posture and the choices behind the outfit suggest; and Fragrance Profile turns both into the top, heart, and base notes that belong with that person. The reading joins your quiz answers and the fragrances you have liked in one taste map, so the ranked matches that follow already carry it. The step is optional, it is included in the free app, and the photo is never stored.

Yes. The Fragnatique chatbot answers open fragrance questions in plain language, and it is built for the comparative and situational ones a ranked list cannot settle: which of two bottles suits you better, what to wear to a winter wedding or a first week in a new office, whether a scent is too heavy for a warm afternoon, why a perfume smells different three hours into a wear, and what a note such as oakmoss actually smells like. Answers carry the reasoning behind them, and because the chatbot reads the same scent profile as the rest of the app, you never have to re-explain your taste at the start of a conversation. The chatbot is included in the free app.

Yes, and comparison is the question the Fragnatique chatbot is built for. Name both bottles and it sets their compositions against each other, marks the notes they share, points at the ones that separate them, and weighs each against your profile and the occasion you described. What comes back is a recommendation with its reasons rather than a verdict, so you can disagree with it when you know something about your own skin that the app does not.

Yes. Ambient Scent reads a photograph of a space and works from what is in the frame: the furniture, the materials, the light falling through it, the colour palette, and the decor. It describes the character of the room first, then ranks the fragrances that belong in it, so an airy light-filled space and a warm dim one come back with entirely different directions. The result is written as a short editorial page, the story of the room ahead of the selection, rather than as a bare list of names. Ambient Scent is what you reach for when the question is what a space should smell like instead of what you should wear.

Yes. The Fragnatique Arcade holds six perfume games assembled from real releases rather than invented puzzle art. Eat My Perfume List is a snake played with the perfumes you have liked, filling in one real pyramid at a time. Guess the Flacon is a brand and model quiz. Scent Championship runs a duel bracket you play down to a single winner. Note Rush has you catching falling notes. Scent Pairs is flacon memory. Pyramid Architect asks you to put a fragrance back together from its scattered materials. Each game keeps your own record on the Arcade menu, and all six are part of the free download. Details are in the app.

It builds recognition, which is the hardest part of fragrance knowledge to acquire by reading. In the Fragnatique Arcade, turning over matching flacons teaches you to identify a house by the shape of its glass before you can read the label, rebuilding an olfactory pyramid teaches you to hear a composition in three stages rather than as one smell, and judging which of two named bottles is sweeter calibrates your sense of where a fragrance sits on an axis of the accord radar. None of it substitutes for smelling, and it is not meant to, but because every bottle in the games is one a house genuinely sells, meeting it later on a shelf is no longer meeting a stranger.

Fragnatique does not publish an accuracy figure, because match quality depends on how much signal a profile carries. Recommendations sharpen noticeably once someone has completed the twelve-question quiz or rated roughly twenty fragrances they already know. Every match is delivered with the reasoning behind it, naming the notes and occasions that drove the score, so the recommendation can be judged on its argument rather than on a number.
