Fragrance Fanatic Builds 6-Game Arcade and AI Concierge for Perfume Nerds

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A university student created recommendmeafragrance, a browser arcade with six daily games and an AI concierge, all built around real perfume data. Games include a Wordle-like scent guesser, a note detective, and a build-a-bottle feature that matches invented scents to real perfumes.
