5.1The App is a fragrance discovery and recommendation service. It helps users explore perfumes and fragrance notes, organize a personal collection, and receive personalized, AI-assisted suggestions. The features below are described for transparency; we may add, modify, suspend or remove features as described in Section 17. Several features rely on the AI Features and on third-party services described in Section 15.
5.2 Home and Personalized Recommendations
The Home screen presents curated and personalized fragrance suggestions, including match indicators and community statistics (for example, how many users own, want or have tried a fragrance). Match percentages and recommendations are generated automatically based on your stated preferences and activity and are provided for informational and inspirational purposes only.
5.3 Fragrance Notes Library
The Notes section allows you to explore fragrance notes organized by category (for example, beverages, spices, flowers, woods). This is reference content intended for educational and discovery purposes.
5.4 Collection
The Collection feature allows you to build and manage a personal library of fragrances, including searching and organizing entries. Where supported, your collection and scent profile are stored locally on your device.
5.5 Scan
The Scan feature uses your device camera to recognize a perfume box or product so that the App can identify the corresponding fragrance and display related information. You control when the camera is activated, and you may decline camera access through your device settings.
5.6 Photo-Based Recommendation (Photo Analysis)
When you choose to use this feature, you may upload an existing photograph or capture a new one. The image is processed by a third-party artificial-intelligence service in order to infer general, non-identifying attributes, such as approximate age range, gender presentation for the sole purpose of generating fragrance suggestions tailored to your style.
Important: The App does not perform facial recognition or identity verification, does not uniquely identify you from the image, and does not infer your race or ethnic origin. The image is transmitted to the AI service for transient processing to produce a recommendation and is not retained by us for any other purpose. Use of this feature requires your explicit, separate consent and that you meet the minimum age in Section 4.3. You may use the rest of the App without using this feature.
The Photo-Based Recommendation feature is intended solely for fragrance recommendation purposes. It is not designed or intended to identify, verify, authenticate, profile, evaluate or make decisions about any individual. The feature must not be used for employment, recruitment, education, insurance, credit, law-enforcement, governmental, housing, healthcare or any other decision-making purposes.
5.7 Preference Test / Quiz
The Preference Test (including questionnaires such as "The Spirit" and "Who are you choosing for?") collects answers that you provide yourself to refine recommendations. Where skin type or similar information is collected through the quiz, it is based on your own self-reported answers.
5.8 Create Your Scent
The Create Your Scent feature generates a digital fragrance formulation suggestion only. It is a creative, informational output produced with the assistance of AI. It is not a manufactured product, and Appthos Studio does not produce, blend, sell, ship or supply any physical perfume or cosmetic product through the App. Any decision to have a fragrance produced based on a suggestion is made by you at your own risk and with third parties who are not controlled by us. Please read the allergen and safety notice in Section 13.
Generated fragrance formulations and other AI-generated outputs are created automatically and may be similar or identical to outputs generated for other users. Appthos Studio does not guarantee the uniqueness, exclusivity, originality, novelty, intellectual-property protection, commercial value or fitness for any particular purpose of any generated output.
Subject to these Terms and applicable law, Appthos Studio does not claim ownership of the specific text output generated for a user. However, Appthos Studio retains all rights in and to the App, its models, recommendation systems, databases, methodologies and underlying technologies used to generate such outputs.
5.9 AI Chatbot
The AI Chatbot provides automated, conversational assistance and fragrance guidance. You are interacting with an artificial-intelligence system and not with a human advisor. Responses are generated automatically and may be inaccurate or incomplete; they are provided for informational purposes only.
5.10 Discover
The Discover section surfaces additional fragrances, brands and content for exploration.
5.11 Location-Based Functionality
Certain features, including Create Your Scent and the AI Chatbot, may use your device location, where you have granted permission, to provide context-aware suggestions such as weather-appropriate recommendations. Location data is processed transiently through a third-party weather service and is not stored by us for this purpose. You may grant or withdraw location access at any time through your device settings; declining location access may limit certain features.
7.1The App is offered on a subscription basis. Certain features may be available without charge, while others require an active Subscription. The price, billing period and scope of each Subscription are presented to you in the App and in the applicable Store before you confirm your purchase.
7.2Store-managed billing. All purchases, payments, automatic renewals, cancellations and refunds are processed and managed by the applicable Store (the Apple App Store and, where applicable, Google Play) through your Store account, in accordance with that Store's terms. Appthos Studio does not process your payments and does not itself charge, renew, cancel or refund Subscriptions.
7.3Automatic renewal. Unless you cancel, your Subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period and your Store account is charged the then-current price for the next period. To avoid renewal, you must cancel through your Store account settings at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
7.4Managing and cancelling. You can view, manage and cancel your Subscription at any time in your Store account settings (for the Apple App Store: your Apple Account › Subscriptions). Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you retain access until then.
7.5Free trials and price changes. Where a free trial or introductory offer is provided, it converts into a paid Subscription unless cancelled beforehand through the Store. Price changes for future periods are handled in accordance with the Store's rules and applicable law, including any notice or consent the Store requires.
7.6Refunds. Because billing is managed by the Store, refunds are requested from and granted by the Store under its policies and your mandatory statutory rights. Appthos Studio generally cannot itself issue refunds for Store purchases.
13.1Fragrances and their ingredients can contain substances that may cause allergic reactions, irritation or sensitization in some individuals. The App provides fragrance information and suggestions for discovery purposes only and does not assess your individual health, skin condition, sensitivities or allergies.
13.2The App does not provide medical, dermatological, allergological or other health advice. Before using, applying, purchasing or commissioning the production of any fragrance, you should review the official ingredient list and allergen declarations provided by the relevant manufacturer, perform an appropriate patch test where relevant, and consult a qualified professional if you have any sensitivity, allergy or health concern.
13.3The Create Your Scent feature provides a digital suggestion only. Appthos Studio does not manufacture, formulate, test, sell or supply any physical product and accepts no responsibility for any product that you or any third party may produce based on a suggestion, nor for any allergic or adverse reaction arising from such a product, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Any generated formulation is experimental, conceptual and untested. It has not undergone safety testing, toxicological assessment, allergen evaluation, dermatological review, cosmetic-product safety assessment, regulatory compliance verification, stability testing or quality-control procedures. Any manufacture, testing, commercialization or use of such formulation is undertaken entirely at the user's own risk.
14.1The App and all Content (excluding User Content and third-party materials), including software, design, text, graphics, the "Fragnatique" name and logo, and all related intellectual-property rights, are owned by or licensed to Appthos Studio and are protected by law. Except for the licence in Section 9, no rights are granted to you.
14.2All third-party trademarks, brand names, product names and packaging shown in the App (for example, perfume brand and product names) are the property of their respective owners and are used solely for identification, descriptive and reference purposes. Their display does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship, approval or endorsement by the respective rights holders.
14.3The fragrance information made available through the App is compiled from publicly available sources. The selection, structuring, arrangement, enrichment and presentation of that information constitute a database in which Appthos Studio holds copyright and the sui generis database right under Directive 96/9/EC and applicable law. Perfume and product images obtained from publicly available sources remain the property of their respective rights holders and are used solely for identification and reference; all other images and visual content in the App are created by or for Appthos Studio and are owned by it. All recommendations, match scores, generated formulations, and other outputs are produced using Appthos Studio's own proprietary models and systems.
14.4Without prejudice to the rights of third parties in their own brand names and source materials, all intellectual-property rights in the App as a whole — including the compiled database, the proprietary models, the generated and original content, the software, the design and the arrangement — are owned by or licensed to Appthos Studio. User behaviour data, fragrance preference profiles, recommendation methodologies, analytical models, ranking systems, recommendation outputs, derived datasets, training data arrangements and related analytical structures constitute valuable proprietary and confidential information of Appthos Studio and are protected by applicable intellectual-property, database, trade-secret and unfair-competition laws.
14.5
You must not, and must not permit any third party to:
- reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the App, or attempt to derive its source code, models or underlying data, except to the extent this cannot be prohibited under mandatory law;
- extract, scrape, copy, harvest, or re-utilise all or a substantial part of the Fragnatique's data or database, whether by automated means or otherwise;
- use the App, its content, its database, its outputs, recommendation results, generated formulations, metadata, user-interface elements or any related materials to train, develop, benchmark, validate, improve or evaluate any artificial-intelligence, machine-learning, large-language-model or similar system.
14.6Text and data mining reservation. Appthos Studio expressly reserves all rights, including the right under Article 4(3) of Directive (EU) 2019/790, and does not authorise any text and data mining of the App or its content. This constitutes an express and machine-readable reservation of those rights.
14.7Enforcement. Appthos Studio actively protects its rights and will pursue all available legal and equitable remedies, including injunctive relief and damages against any infringement, unauthorised extraction or reproduction, counterfeiting, trademark infringement, passing off, or imitation or copying of the App, its content, database, design, or brand.
14.8Competitive Use Restriction. The App, its database, recommendation systems, fragrance taxonomy, note relationships, generated outputs, rankings, match methodologies and related materials may not be used, directly or indirectly, to develop, operate, improve or support any competing fragrance, recommendation, artificial-intelligence or consumer-discovery service without the prior written consent of Appthos Studio.
25.1Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Appthos Studio regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements, except for additional terms that apply via the Stores or third-party services.
25.2Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force, and the invalid provision will be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the original intent, consistent with mandatory consumer law.
25.3No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
25.4Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, provided this does not reduce your rights as a consumer; in such case you may terminate if you do not agree.
25.5Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
25.6Notices. We may provide notices through the App or by other appropriate means. You may contact us using the details in Section 26.
25.7Language. These Terms may be provided in several languages for your convenience. In case of inconsistency, the English version prevails, except where the mandatory law of your country of residence requires that the version in your local language prevails.
25.8Feedback. If you provide feedback, suggestions or ideas about the App, you grant Appthos Studio a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use them for any purpose without obligation or compensation to you.
25.9Fragrance information. Fragrance notes, descriptions, brand and product information and community statistics are provided for general informational purposes, may be sourced from third parties or community input, and may be incomplete or inaccurate. They are not a substitute for the official information provided by the relevant manufacturer.
25.10Electronic communications. You consent to receive communications from us electronically, whether in-app or by other electronic means, and you agree that such communications satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.
25.11Security. You must not probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the App or any related system, nor breach or circumvent any security or authentication measure.
25.12Copyright complaints. If you believe that content in the App infringes your intellectual-property rights, please contact us at
contact@appthos.com with enough detail to identify the content and your rights, and we will review and take appropriate action.
