Interparfums, Inc. operates in the fragrance business. The company manufactures, markets and distributes a wide array of prestige fragrances, and fragrance related products.
The company’s consolidated wholly owned subsidiary is Inter Parfums Holdings, S.A. and its majority owned subsidiary is Interparfums SA. Interparfums SA is also the majority owner of Parfums Rochas Spain, SL, a Spanish limited liability company, which specializes in the distribution of Rochas fragrances. In addition, Interparfums SA holds a 25% interest in Divabox SAS, a toiletries, cosmetics, and perfumes distributor in France.
The company has wholly owned subsidiaries, including Interparfums Italia Srl, Interparfums, USA Swiss Ltd, Interparfums Middle East DMCC, and Inter Parfums USA Hong Kong Limited. Interparfums SA also has wholly owned subsidiaries, including InterParfums Asia Pacific Pte., Ltd., Interparfums Luxury Brands, Inc., and Interparfums (Suisse) Sarl.
The company manages its business in two segments, European based operations and United States based operations. Certain prestige fragrance products are produced and marketed by its European-based operations through its 72% owned subsidiary in Paris, Interparfums SA, which is also a publicly traded company, as 28% of Interparfums SA shares trade on the Euronext.
The company acts as a general contractor and sources its needed components from its suppliers. These components are either received and stored directly at its third-party fillers, or received at one of its distribution centers, and then, based upon production needs, the components are sent to one of several third-party fillers, which manufacture the finished products for the company, and then deliver them to one of its distribution centers.
The company’s fragrance products focus on prestige brands. By focusing on markets where the brands are best known, the company has had many successful product launches. The company typically launches new fragrance families for its brands every few years (‘blockbusters’), and more frequently introduces seasonal and limited edition fragrances (‘flankers’ or ‘line extensions’). The company has a strong brand portfolio with global reach and potential. As part of the company’s strategy, it plans to continue to make investments in fast-growing markets and channels to grow market share.
European-Based Operations
The company produces and distributes its fragrance products primarily under license agreements with brand owners, and fragrance product sales through its European-based operations represented approximately 65% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024. The company has built a portfolio of prestige brands, which include Boucheron, Coach, Jimmy Choo, Karl Lagerfeld, Kate Spade, Lacoste, Lanvin, Moncler, Montblanc, Rochas, and Van Cleef & Arpels, whose products are distributed in over 120 countries around the world.
United States-Based Operations
Prestige brand fragrance products are also produced and marketed through the company’s United States-based operations and represented approximately 35% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024. These fragrance products are sold under trademarks owned by the company, or pursuant to license or other agreements with the owners of brands, which include Abercrombie & Fitch, Anna Sui, Donna Karan/DKNY, Emanuel Ungaro, Ferragamo, Graff, GUESS, Hollister, MCM, Oscar de la Renta, and Roberto Cavalli.

Now the luxury brand that best embodies New York’s casual elegance, Coach also offers collections of ready-to-wear, lifestyle accessories, and fragrances.

Emanuel Ungaro—In October 2021, the company also entered into a 10-year exclusive global licensing agreement with Emanuel Ungaro for the creation, development, and distribution of fragrances and fragrance-related products under the Emanuel Ungaro brand. Founded in 1965 in Paris, the house of Emanuel Ungaro is an icon of French refinement and haute couture. Its unique style is expressed through unquestioning sensuality, purity of silhouette, flamboyant prints, and exquisite attention to detail. Season after season, Emanuel Ungaro dared to be different, combining unexpected yet sensual clashes of bright colors and prints with beautiful draping.
Emanuel Ungaro fragrances uphold the same values of audacity and elegance, and the brand is best known internationally, and such presence will remain the company’s sales focus as it continues to produce and distribute the brand’s legacy scents, notably Diva.

Karl Lagerfeld—In 2012, the company entered into a 20-year worldwide license agreement with Karl Lagerfeld B.V., the internationally renowned haute couture fashion house, to create, produce, and distribute fragrances under the Karl Lagerfeld brand.

Lacoste—In December 2022, the company closed a transaction agreement with Lacoste, whereby a 15-year exclusive and worldwide license was granted for the production and distribution of Lacoste brand perfumes and cosmetics.
At the juncture of sport and fashion, Lacoste frees the company up, creates movement in the company’s lives, and liberates its self-expression. In every collection, in every line, Lacoste’s timeless elegance is captured through a combination of the creative and the classic. Since its beginnings, the crocodile’s aura has grown more powerful with every generation that has worn it, becoming a rallying sign beyond style. Passed from country to country, from one generation to the next, from one friend to another, Lacoste pieces become imbued with an emotional connection that raises them to the status of icons.
The Lacoste license took effect in January 2024, and the company developed go-forward strategies, curated the collection, and produced entirely new fresh goods during the year. In 2024, the company recreated Lacoste Original, the brand’s first men’s line, and introduced the L.12.12 fragrance line.

The Moncler outerwear collections marry the extreme demands of nature with those of city life.

Rochas—In 2015, the company acquired the Rochas brand from The Procter & Gamble Company. The brand began as a fashion house and expanded into perfumery in the 1950s under Helène Rochas’ direction.
With Rochas, nature is synonymous with French-style gardens, eternal springs, freshness, and innocence. Never dry, these gardens are constantly irrigated by the water of dreams and lit by the sun of the imagination. Rochas’ birds and flowers are regularly revisited in the ready-to-wear creations and perfumes. They are part of the natural lifeblood of Rochas, a constant presence thronging with a multitude of colors and a very Parisian spirit.
The company’s first new fragrance for Rochas, Mademoiselle Rochas, had a successful launch in 2017 in its traditional markets of France and Spain. Over the next few years, the company debuted flankers for legacy scents Eau de Rochas and Mademoiselle Rochas, plus others, and in 2018, the company launched its first new men’s line, Rochas Moustache.

A first boutique entirely dedicated to the brand should be up and running by the end of 2025, along with an e-commerce site. The launch of this new brand reflects the company’s medium-term growth strategy in the extremely buoyant high-end fragrance market. With the Solferino collection, a proprietary brand under development for the past two years, the company will boast a rich and unique universe perfectly suited to the high-end fragrance market. This represents a first strategic step in the implementation of a new focus on a market that has exhibited sustained growth for several years.
Van Cleef & Arpels—The company’s initial 12-year license agreement with Van Cleef & Arpels was signed in 2006. In 2018, the company renewed its license agreement for an additional six years with Van Cleef & Arpels for the creation, development, and distribution of fragrance products through December 2024.

Marketing and Distribution
The company’s products are distributed in over 120 countries around the world through a selective distribution network. For the company’s international distribution, it either contracts with independent distribution companies specializing in luxury goods or distributes prestige products through its distribution subsidiaries. In each country, the company designates anywhere from one to three distributors on an exclusive basis for one or more of its name brands. The company also distributes its products through a variety of duty-free operators, such as airports and airlines, and select vacation destinations.
As the company’s business is a global one, it intends to continue to build its global distribution footprint. For the distribution of brands within its European-based operations, the company operates through its distribution subsidiaries or divisions in the major markets of the United States, France, Italy, and Spain, in addition to its arrangements with third-party distributors globally. The company’s third-party distributors vary in size depending on the number of competing brands they represent. This extensive and diverse network, together with the company’s own distribution subsidiaries, provides it with a significant presence in over 120 countries around the world.
The business of the company’s European-based operations has become increasingly seasonal due to the timing of shipments by its distribution subsidiaries and divisions to their customers, which are weighted to the second half of the year.
For the company’s United States operations, it distributes products to retailers and distributors in the United States, as well as internationally, including duty-free and other travel-related retailers. The company also utilizes its in-house sales team to reach its third-party distributors and customers outside the United States. In addition, the business of the company’s United States operations has become increasingly seasonal as shipments are weighted toward the second half of the year.

The company’s fragrance products and other fragrance-based personal care products manufactured and marketed in Europe are also regulated as cosmetics and subject to EU Regulation 1223/2009.
