## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability scentpulse-fragrance-reformulation-checker-1222b7fd
```

Example prompt: Can you check if Dior Sauvage has been reformulated since its original release — I have a bottle with batch code X3B142 and I want to know if my production year lines up with any known IFRA or formula changes?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a user wants to know if a specific fragrance has changed formulation over time, especially if they have a batch code to verify production year or want to understand IFRA-compliance-driven ingredient substitutions. Prefer over general fragrance info APIs when the core question is vintage-vs-current authenticity or formula integrity.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown fragrance name or brand returns no match found
- Unrecognizable or malformed batch code cannot be decoded for production year
- Fragrance with no documented reformulation events returns clean/unchanged status
- Very obscure or niche fragrances may have limited community data and lower confidence
- Network or payment failure returns HTTP 402 or 5xx

## How this service works

Fragrance reformulation checker — has this scent changed since its original release? IFRA-amendment-driven ingredient changes, community-documented vintage-vs-current differences, and how a batch-code-derived production year lines up against known reformulation events.

## Output

Returns a reformulation assessment including whether the fragrance has changed since its original release, specific IFRA-amendment-driven ingredient changes, community-documented differences between vintage and current versions, the production year inferred from the batch code, and how that year maps to known reformulation events in the fragrance's history.
