10ML Perfume Finder
A free perfume MCP server and fragrance API that gives Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants access to data on 6,000+ perfumes, including notes, accords and similar scents.
About
10ML Perfume Finder is a free Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and fragrance API that lets AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT answer perfume questions with structured, editor-curated data instead of guesswork. General-purpose chatbots often give vague or inconsistent fragrance advice because they lack a reliable source of note pyramids, accords and house information; this server supplies that knowledge base directly.
The service is built and maintained by 10ML, publisher of the 10ML Fragrance Index, which covers 6,019 perfumes from 249 houses along with 285 explained notes and 164 guides in ten languages. Connecting takes a single URL over Streamable HTTP with no API key, no sign-up and no authentication. A REST mirror with an OpenAPI 3.1 description is available for applications that do not use MCP, and the server can also run locally as a stdio server through npm or PyPI packages.
