description: 'Perfumeo (Perfumeo(R)) is a consumer-hardware startup that built an AI-driven smart-home fragrance diffuser
  — a connected device holding scent capsules that its companion mobile app uses to adapt diffusion to the user''s mood. The
  company describes itself as combining AI, data science, "green mechatronics" and green chemistry, and states it was founded
  in Paris in July 2021 and relocated to Cupertino, California in April 2023. It is an end-user product company: no public
  API, SDK, developer portal, webhook surface or machine-readable contract has ever been published, and none was found in
  this pass. As of 2026-08-26 the domain the company itself lists as its website, www.perfumeo-ai.com, no longer belongs to
  it — WHOIS shows the domain was created 2026-06-12 under a Dynadot privacy proxy on domain-parking nameservers, and it now
  serves a bot-challenge interstitial followed by a "Coming Soon" holding page. The company''s LinkedIn page remains up and
  lists a headcount of one.'

x-notes:
  website: 'NO Website pointer is emitted, deliberately. The company''s own published website (www.perfumeo-ai.com, per its
    LinkedIn profile and its own press releases) is no longer under its control: the domain was re-registered 2026-06-12 through
    Dynadot behind a privacy proxy on *.ns.giantpanda.com parking nameservers and now serves a placeholder. Pointing this
    profile at it would send readers and agents to a parked third-party domain and would assert a live company website that
    does not exist. The previous stub carried "type: Website / https://www.nasdaqprivatemarket.com/", which was the HARVEST
    SOURCE (Nasdaq Private Market''s own site), never Perfumeo''s — that pointer has been removed as flatly incorrect.'
  domain_security: 'security/perfumeo-domain-security.yml was written by probe-domain-security.py on 2026-08-26 and then DELETED
    in the same pass. Because the only Website pointer in the stub was nasdaqprivatemarket.com, the script measured Nasdaq
    Private Market''s TLS, HSTS, SPF and DMARC posture and filed it as Perfumeo''s. It has been removed rather than re-pointed:
    perfumeo-ai.com is now a parking service''s infrastructure, so probing it would credit a squatter''s DNS and TLS configuration
    to this company. Perfumeo has no domain of its own left to measure.'
  namesake: perfumeo.fr is a DIFFERENT and unrelated company — FUZE TRADING SAS of Reims, France, a Shopify perfume retailer
    whose homepage announces it is closing. It is not this company's European storefront and must not be merged into this
    profile or used as a source for it.
  unverified_claims: 'Funding aggregators report a $105M round at a $450M valuation (Oct 2025) and patents in 157 countries.
    These are NOT asserted here: they trace to self-serve press-release wire copy and aggregator summaries, they were not
    corroborated by any primary source, and they sit poorly beside a LinkedIn headcount of one and a lapsed corporate domain.'

  detail: The domain Perfumeo itself publishes as its website, perfumeo-ai.com, was re-registered on 2026-06-12 behind a Dynadot
    privacy proxy on domain-parking nameservers and now answers a JS bot-challenge and then a "Coming Soon" holding page,
    with wildcard DNS and an HTTP catch-all that returns an identical 200 HTML shell for every path and every subdomain including
    invented ones.
