Perfume Collection
Read full descriptionHide full description
FlaconKeep is a private collection instrument and wear diary for fragrance lovers. Keep every full bottle, backup, travel spray, decant and sample on your own device. No account, no ads and no subscription. See the wardrobe, not a spreadsheet. A photo-forward vitrine shows each bottle and its rough fill at a glance. Open its dossier for concentration, batch code, size, purchase details, top/heart/base notes, notes you perceive, longevity and sillage. Popular fragrances are included for fast entry (not an encyclopedia), and manual entry is always first-class. Make Scent of the Day a two-tap ritual. Log a wear from a recent bottle, record sprays and occasion, or layer several vessels into one honest diary entry. Reapply without re-entering the details. Pick for me quietly brings a neglected bottle back into rotation. Know what you use. Track fill in practical fractions and see estimated cost per logged wear without pretending to know every spray. Pro adds rotation, seasonality, house and note affinities, neglected-bottle intelligence, and a factual Year in Scent recap. Turn trying into deciding. Move a fragrance from to-try to sample to to-buy to owned. Keep a wear count toward the decision, target size and maximum price, and get a duplicate warning before buying something already in the wardrobe. Backups stay linked; finishing one bottle can archive it and bring its backup forward without losing history. Bring your existing collection. Paste a spreadsheet export, map its columns and review duplicates before importing. ZIP backup, restore and CSV export are always free, including while the free wardrobe is at its ten-full-bottle limit. Free includes ten active full bottles plus ten smaller vessels: samples, decants and travel sprays combined. Everything you have already added stays yours to view, back up and export. FlaconKeep Pro is one purchase per storefront and unlocks unlimited full bottles, full insights, Year in Scent, multiple bottle photos and optional PIN/biometric app lock. Works fully offline. No account required. Your collection can always be exported. FlaconKeep is not affiliated with or endorsed by any fragrance house.

Scentory helps you organize perfume samples and remember every trial. Where did that sample go? How did it smell a few hours later? Would you buy a bottle? Keep the location, impressions and decisions together, so your next choice starts with your own experience. ORGANIZE YOUR SAMPLES Group samples into boxes. Add photos, names and position numbers, then search your library. Samples without a position work too. On your own box photo, you can manually mark sample locations. CHOOSE WHAT TO TRY TODAY Get suggestions from samples you already own: something untried, ready for another test, or recently loved. Explore, choose a familiar favorite, or revisit a scent. RECORD HOW A SCENT CHANGES Keep first impressions and later observations in the same trial. Choose a feeling, add scent tags and write a note. Adjust times, add context, and opt into a local reminder when useful. REMEMBER YOUR DECISIONS Buy a bottle, keep the sample, try again or pass. Add your reason, update your choice later, and keep earlier decisions in your history. LOOK BACK ON YOUR EXPLORATION Review impressions and decisions in a timeline. See monthly trials, frequently tested samples, exploration progress and current decisions. START WITH THE PERFUME CATALOG Browse the bundled catalog offline, select samples you own, or add any sample manually. PRIVATE STORAGE AND BACKUPS No Scentory account required. Works offline, with optional private iCloud sync. Export JSON backups and merge restored data. Your data stays on your devices and in your private iCloud database, with no developer-operated data server. START FREE Start with ten samples, the default box and one custom box. Scentory Pro removes sample and custom-box limits. SCENTORY PRO Scentory Pro is available as auto-renewing monthly and yearly subscriptions or a one-time lifetime purchase. Eligible subscribers can try either subscription free for 3 days; Apple determines eligibility, and only one introductory offer can be redeemed within the subscription group.
