Fragram • Perfume Finder

2 stars for attempt but I’m really having a hard time understanding what this app is for. There’s no social / forum element - so aside from the recommendation feature (which is fun!) there’s not much to sink my teeth into as a user. The app pulls majority safe, crowd pleasing fragrances from designer and mainstream houses. Popular brands make incredible products but the experience doesn’t feel like much of a “discovery.” I’ll hold on for now, someone had a vision and made an app. I hope they can expand functionality and bring some of the Reddit/Fragrantica energy to a new platform. The online fragrance community is an exciting place - I hope one day this app can evolve into something more lively.

First off I really like the concept of this app since finding scents on Fragrantica based on specific notes can be somewhat tedious. However, where the app falls apart is in its algorithm for recommendations. Either the app has too small of a library of scents to be effective or the algorithm was developed poorly. For example the notes I selected were very specific to one type of fragrance which can be loosely described as “aventus-like” with citrus, oud, vetiver, moss, musk, etc which is a very popular and often replicated scent profile. But the top recommendation it gave me was Molecule 01 which is straight ISO E Super. In fact, none of the recommendations even had citrus in the scent profile. This is baffling since there are soo many frags with the scent profile I selected such as LV L’immensite, Sospiro Vibrato, Loewe Esencia EDP, Club de Nuit, Etc. Unfortunately I had to delete this app and can’t really recommend it to anyone.

This was very easy to use. Some of my results are in my collection already!
