Fragrantica Designers Scraper

Fragrantica Designers Scraper extracts perfume brands (designers) from Fragrantica into clean, structured data you can download as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML. Paste a brand page, the designer index, or a country, parent company, or industry page, or just type a brand name, and get one row per brand with its country, parent company, website, description, perfume counts, launch years, perfumers, and collections. No account or login required.

Introduction

Fragrantica is the largest online perfume encyclopedia, with more than 140,000 perfumes from over 8,000 brands, from luxury fashion houses to small niche and indie perfumers. Each brand page shows where the brand comes from, who owns it, its official website, and its full fragrance catalog.

This actor turns those brand pages into a ready-to-use dataset, one brand per row, so you can map the perfume market, build lead lists of fragrance brands, or follow how brand catalogs grow. You can run it once, schedule it to run regularly, or connect it to your own tools.

How to scrape Fragrantica designers step by step

1. Paste one or more Fragrantica URLs into Start URLs, or type brand names into Search brands.
2. Set Maximum number of designers to how many brands you want per URL or per search.
3. Turn on Include the full perfume list if you also want every perfume of each brand.
4. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
5. Download your data in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the Output tab.

Input

• Start URLs: Fragrantica pages to scrape. Supported pages:
  • A brand page, for example https://www.fragrantica.com/designers/Dior.html
  • The designer index: https://www.fragrantica.com/designers/ (most popular brands) or the alphabetical pages https://www.fragrantica.com/designers-1/ to https://www.fragrantica.com/designers-11/
  • A country page, for example https://www.fragrantica.com/country/France.html
  • A parent company page, for example https://www.fragrantica.com/parent-company/LVMH.html
  • An industry page, for example https://www.fragrantica.com/industry/Niche+perfumes.html
  • The overview pages https://www.fragrantica.com/country/, https://www.fragrantica.com/parent-company/, and https://www.fragrantica.com/industry/, which go through every country, parent company, or industry in the order Fragrantica shows them
• Search brands: brand names to search on Fragrantica, one per line. Each search is scraped separately, best matches first.
• Maximum number of designers: how many brands to collect for each start URL or search. Set 0 to get every brand.
• Include the full perfume list: adds every perfume of the brand to each row. Off by default, because large brands have more than a thousand perfumes. Counts and collections are always included.
• Proxy configuration: Apify Proxy is on by default and works well. Fragrantica blocks many IP addresses, so keep a proxy enabled.

You can use start URLs, brand searches, or both in the same run.

Notes

• Only Fragrantica.com (English) pages listed under Input are supported. Perfume pages, news, and other URLs are skipped with a warning.
• A brand page lists every perfume of the brand, so no perfumes are cut off, even for brands with more than a thousand perfumes.
• A brand search returns at most 1,000 brands. To get every brand, use the alphabetical index pages /designers-1/ to /designers-11/ (about 8,400 brands in total).
• If a brand page no longer exists, Fragrantica sends you to its homepage; such URLs are skipped with a warning.
• Perfumers are listed by name, exactly as Fragrantica writes them, and can include fragrance companies.
• Some brands have no description, no website, no parent company, or no known launch years; those fields are null. A perfume without a known year has year: null.
• Fragrantica does not show an average rating per brand, so the dataset does not include one.
• Works on Cloudflare-protected pages. Keep Apify Proxy enabled for stable runs.
