# ScentMetric

> Data-backed cologne clone comparison platform. Compare 1000+ colognes scored on similarity, performance, projection and longevity.

ScentMetric is a free web tool that helps fragrance enthusiasts find the best cologne clones (dupes) by scoring them across four metrics using community data from Reddit, Fragrantica, and YouTube reviews.

## Scoring System

Each clone is rated on four metrics:
- Similarity (40% weight) — How close the clone smells to the original
- Performance (20% weight) — Overall strength and presence
- Projection (20% weight) — How far the scent carries
- Longevity (20% weight) — How many hours it lasts on skin

Overall score formula: similarity × 0.4 + performance × 0.2 + projection × 0.2 + longevityNormalized × 0.2
