Reformulation perfume guide

Finding your best batch made easy

Vintage Decants

Buying Guide:

In my opinion, the most significant reformulations in perfumery generally occurred for most perfumes during 2006, 2018, and 2023. For the best results, seek formulations before these major changes. Here's the easiest way to find a good formulation for your scent:

If your perfume was released before 2006, search for boxes with short ingredient lists, usually five ingredients or fewer. Longer ingredient lists generally appeared on boxes after 2005/06 for most brands.

* After 2006, it's easier to trace your batch code using a website like CheckFresh.com

New perfumery is constantly evolving, and understanding these timelines can help you pinpoint your favorite era!
