Following the success of this year’s edition, the XVIIth SIMPPAR promises to be under the best auspices for its first edition in Grasse, on Tuesday May 28 and Wednesday May 29, 2024.
Actually, we received many more demands than booth available and the exhibition is now quite full with many newcomers, both raw materiual producers and equipment manufacturerS (see the list of exhibitors on this site).

We remind you that this exhibition is reserved to professionals in the perfume industry and is not open to individuals, retailers or independents whose activity is not linked to Perfumery. 

To allow participants to have time after the exhibition to visit the rose fields and distillers, the MIP – International Perfume Museum, or the companies in the Grasse area, the date has been brought forward by one day.
Post-exhibition visits will then take place on Thursday May 30 and Friday May 31.
A program of visits to the producers will be organized in partnership with the Grasse Tourist Office, which will be communicated to you on the website :

For the visit to the MIP which is located right next to the exhibition, you will find all information on :

Regarding visits to the Grasse companies, you have to contact them directly for this purpose, before or during the exhibition.
If you come by car, you will find a list of nearby city car parks on the « information » page.
You also have the option of coming by train from Cannes. The « Centifolia » shuttle, leaving every 15 minutes from the train station in Grasse, will take you to Cours Honoré Cresp. The shuttle journey takes around 20 minutes, unless there is heavy traffic. Tickets must be taken on site.
You may also use Grasse taxis : +33 (0)4 92 99 11 00.

If you have luggage, you can drop it off at the Palais des Congrès cloakroom and pick it up after the SIMPPAR cocktail on 28/5 on the terrace of the Palais des Congrès ending at 9:30 p.m. or after the closing gala on 29/5 offered by the Grasse Town Hall which invites us to a garden party in the gardens of Villa Fragonard, down below Cours Honoré Cresp, from 5 :30 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Don’t forget to indicate your participation in these two evening parties when registering, the badge will be required at entry.

Finally, book you hotel as soon as possible because tye month of May is busy in the Grasse region (see the proposed list)

Created 32 years ago by the French Society of Perfumers (SFP) to allow its perfumer members to meet producers, SIMPPAR has become, year after year, the most important exhibition for raw materials for perfumery.

Its international vocation continues to grow and half of the exhibitors and 45% of the visitors to SIMPPAR 2023 were foreigners.

The principle of the same booth « ready to exhibit » for everyone, whether multinationals and small producers, makes it possible to limit costs and reduce installation time.
This does not prevent exhibitors from showing a lot of imagination and talent for their decoration.
Its concept of a human-sized and friendly exhibition, located near the largest perfumery companies is the guarantee of its success.

This 17th edition will take place outdoors for the first time, on the Cours Honoré Cresp, under a large tent with 55 booths and around 30 individual 4mx4m tents.
The booths will be the same size as for previous SIMPPARs in Paris, i.e. 12m2, and will be equipped with the same furniture : 1 table and 4 chairs plus 1 front desk with a high stool.
Exhibitors will have access to their booth to fix it on Monday May 27 and the exhibition will take place on May 28 and 29, with the traditional cocktail party on  May 28 evening and – new ! – a Closing Gala on May 29, after the end of the exhibition, offered by the Grasse Town Hall who invite us to a garden party in the gardens of Villa Fragonard, down below Cours Honoré Cresp, from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. .

During the exhibition, they will be able to use the « Carré VIP » for their meetings or presentations.
The restaurant will be located in the Palais des Congrès, just opposite the esplanade.
