Scento Perfume API

Overview

Scento Perfume API is the perfume knowledge connector for AI assistants. It brings Scento's verified perfume database into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and VS Code: more than 1,400 designer and niche perfumes with their top, heart and base notes, over 400 raw materials explained, and Scento's own family system. Every answer links to a page on scento.com, so an assistant can show where a statement comes from. It is read-only, needs no key and no account, and is built for anyone who wants an assistant to talk about perfume with substance instead of guesses.

Key Features

Twelve read-only tools cover the questions people actually ask about fragrance. Search perfumes, houses and notes by name. Get a perfume portrait with its notes, character and family. Find scent neighbours, the perfumes that sit closest to a given one. Put two perfumes side by side in a contrast. Read a portrait of a raw material such as oud, iris or vetiver, and list the perfumes built on those materials. Get a perfume house portrait, a map of Scento's families, an edit of perfumes for an occasion, or a small wardrobe composed around a taste. Each tool returns structured answers that point back to the matching page on scento.com.

Use Cases

Ask an assistant which perfumes smell closest to one you already love, and get neighbours with the reason they match. Compare two fragrances before choosing a sample. Learn what a raw material smells like and which perfumes feature it. Build a short list of perfumes for a wedding, a summer evening or the office. Developers can add the connector to their own agents and apps to ground perfume answers in one consistent source.

Getting Started

Add the remote MCP server at https://www.scento.com/mcp to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client; the transport is streamable HTTP and no authentication is involved. A matching REST API lives at https://www.scento.com/api/perfume/v1 with an OpenAPI file at https://www.scento.com/api/perfume/v1/openapi.json, so the same data is available to ordinary HTTP clients. The full tool list, connection snippets for each client and examples are on https://www.scento.com/developers.

Pricing & Plans

Free to use. There is no key, no account and no sign-up: connect the endpoint and ask. Scento is Europe's largest perfume decant website, founded in Paris in 2024.
