DECODE. DISCOVER. SHARE.

Decode batch dates, explore evidence and contribute to the Ex Nihilo record.

A research estimate, never proof of authenticity.

COMMUNITY

Research is stronger when it is shared.

Bring a batch, a photograph or a source to the public record. Every contribution is reviewed before it can become public evidence.

Reported

A community observation waiting for more context. It is a lead, never a certainty.

Photo-backed

A public photo supports the record while the original stays tied to its source and consent.

Corroborated

Independent signals point in the same direction. We keep the evidence trail visible.

Strong corroboration

Several independent sources and photo-backed evidence align, without claiming authenticity.

À PROPOS

A careful record for curious collectors.

Batch Lab separates model estimates, public evidence and community confidence so every claim can be understood in context.

Mission

Decode patterns, preserve provenance and make perfume research easier to revisit.

Methodology

A decoder suggests dates. Evidence and source diversity describe confidence. Neither is an authenticity certificate.

Moderation

Human review protects the public gallery and keeps pending contributions private while they are checked.

Privacy

Photos shared for review remain private until an explicit approval makes a public derivative available.

Batch Decoder

Decode a production code.

Fast model interpretation with evidence status kept separate from authenticity.

Model A · PREFIX + X + Y + DDD
A coherent batch pattern is not proof of authenticity. Dates shown by the decoder are community-model estimates unless independently calibrated.

Multilingual batch discovery across marketplaces, perfume communities and official/reference sources. A public mention is a lead, not automatic proof of authenticity.

V8.3.3 evidence-strategy + Wave 3 model

Platform & language coverage

Evidence Strategy Lab

Not all evidence has the same calibration value. Wave 3 ranks evidence types by what they can independently prove: batch existence, fragrance identity, exact date and source independence.

Calibration Lab

External dates are compared with the ordinal decoder. Exact matches strengthen the model, but remain community/market evidence rather than manufacturer confirmation.

Source Independence / Mirror Dedup

Mirrored listings are clustered so copied pages do not inflate confidence as independent confirmations.

Conflict Quarantine

Codes with prefix or catalogue contamination are blocked from normal decoding until resolved.

New cross-platform batch signals

Rejected / suspicious signals

These stay outside the valid batch database and are used only by the anomaly/authenticity guard.

Batch Variation Watch

Subjective owner reports can reveal formulation or storage differences, but they do not prove reformulation. V8.3.3 stores them separately from production-date evidence.

Research Priority Queue

Next searches are ranked by how much they can improve prefix identity, code transcription or cross-source confidence.

Decoder Hypothesis Lab

Compare alternative interpretations against the observed dataset. Scores are heuristic research-fit indicators, not official validation.

V8.3.3 Global Research Wave 3

Wave 3 adds Outcast Blue Extrait OU13063 as a single-source exact-code lead and introduces an Evidence Strategy Lab. Authenticity cards, direct label photos and independent source clusters are now ranked by how strongly they can calibrate the decoder.

Global evidence + anomaly intelligence

Prefix Resolution Watch

Resolved mappings and unresolved hypotheses are kept separate. Candidate mappings never auto-detect a fragrance until photo-verified or confirmed.

Open Research Leads

Photo leads, owner leads, retailer leads and conflicting identifiers stay visible until the batch can be read and independently checked.

Prefix Discovery

This page tracks which product prefixes have actually been observed and how strong the evidence is. Prefixes are not inferred from fragrance names unless evidence exists.

Compare batches side by side

Known records show evidence and confidence. A valid but unknown code can also be compared as an Experimental model-only decode.

Submit your batch

1. Batch identity
2. Evidence details

3. Optional performance data

Smart duplicate check

Enter a batch code. Existing batches will be detected automatically and your submission will be attached as new evidence rather than duplicated.

Quality tips

Best submissions include: a clear batch photo, correct fragrance/concentration, bottle size, approximate purchase period, country and public source.
