Top 3 Fragrance Ingredient Trends from SIMPPAR 2025

By: Emily Little

The International Exhibition of Raw Materials for Perfumery (SIMPPAR), held June 4 and 5 in Paris, allowed attendees to explore a wide range of ingredients and solutions for the fragrance industry. Across the show floor, I saw blotter sticks wafted under noses and observed so many conversations about new applications for these ingredients. The enthusiasm was contagious, and the spirit of innovation could be felt throughout the expo hall.

While I walked up and down the rows of booths, several trends immediately emerged that demonstrated the current direction of the fragrance industry. These trends have their own nuances, but they all relate to one macrotrend: sustainability. It’s not just a buzzword anymore; it is a necessity to ensure high-quality, cost-effective products that consumers will love.

I’ve compiled the top three trends from SIMPPAR 2025, each with their own examples of company applications. As this industry continues to evolve, I am excited to see how these trends will evolve as well at next year’s show. See you in Grasse!
