Fragrance Formulator

Fragrance Formulator is an AI-assisted perfume design studio for indie and hobbyist perfumers, on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Build formulas by hand or let AI do the structural heavy lifting. Load a PDF, CSV, or XLSX of an existing formula and have every ingredient cross-referenced against your personal raw-materials inventory. Each line tells you whether you already own it, can substitute it from what's in stock (with confidence scores and mix ratios), or need to buy it. CREATE • Create — build a formula ingredient by ingredient with autocomplete from your inventory, or import an existing one from PDF / CSV / XLSX. • Create using AI — a guided wizard takes you through gender, day-or-night, a base direction, and up to two key notes (each with refreshable AI suggestions). Claude composes a complete 18–22 ingredient formula structured around proven perfumery accords, with sensible dose ranges and a clear identity. The wizard is asked to work to IFRA Category 4 guidance, and the built-in IFRA check lets you verify the result yourself before you make it. CHECK • IFRA Check — free, on device, no credits, no network. Check every material against a bundled copy of IFRA's published Standards at the strength it will be worn. Results come back in three groups: over a limit, needs checking against the official Standard by hand, and not recognised. Materials sharing a Standard are added together and judged on their combined level. It is an advisory check, not a certification — it will never tell you a formula is compliant. • Formula Check — drop in any formula file and have it analysed against your inventory. Streams results back ingredient by ingredient with substitute suggestions and confidence scores. Cost estimate shown before each run. • Fragrance Overview — a Fragrantica-style analysis of any of your formulas. Get a written scent profile, main accords, when-to-wear scores, perfume pyramid colour-coded by note, plus longevity / sillage / gender scales — and a poetic inspiration map showing the real-world origins of the dominant raw materials. Export the whole thing as a polished PDF with one of three name suggestions. ORGANISE • Mix — save formulas, label them with colour swatches, group them into custom folders, track which ingredients you've already weighed out. • Created — log every actual batch you've mixed with creation date, batch grams, concentration percentage, alcohol weight, and a default maturation timeline (alcohol added +14 days, maceration complete +60 days after that). Sort by any column. • Inventory — searchable record of every material you own with weights, suppliers, and notes. Import / export CSV. • Shopping List — automatically populated from "Buy" results, with Ordered / Received tracking and one-tap "add to inventory" when stock arrives. ICLOUD SYNC Your formulas, folders, batches, inventory, and shopping list sync automatically across your iPhone, iPad and Mac via your private iCloud account. CREDIT-BASED AI AI features use a simple credit system bought via In-App Purchase — no subscriptions, no surprises. Every AI action shows its credit cost before you commit. Suggestions inside the AI wizard are included in the wizard's fee. Three credit pack sizes available to suit casual experiments or working perfumers. BUILT FOR PERFUMERS Whether you're working through a creative brief, reverse- engineering a fragrance, building your first chypre, or just trying to use up what you've already got — Fragrance Formulator turns half-hour decisions into thirty-second ones, while keeping the craft and the safety in your hands.
